I won this Free book from Goodreads First Reads. Thank you Goodreads for picking my name to win this book.
Tara Clancy narrates the story of her Irish-Italian family background in Queens, N. Y.
There are some laugh out loud moments when Tara describes her grandmother and great aunt. They all live together in a large home.
She describes the highs and lows of her life growing up in Queens with uncanny truth and detail.
I loved the book and Tara's style of writing.

Tanya I also was lucky to read this as a free book. Loved the author's style and the story about her family life and the way they supported her. Hope she writes more.
