Nest (Sweeney) - Book Reviews

Book Reviews
[f]our middle-aged Plumb siblings...await the distribution of the trust fund their father had established for them.... [Sweeney's] writing is assured, energetic, and adroitly plotted, sweeping the reader along through an engrossing narrative that endears readers to the Plumb family for their essential humanity.
Publishers Weekly


This anticipated debut novel...typifies the Internet meme "white people problems"..... Anyone with siblings will appreciate the character dynamics at play here, although they may not care much for each character individually. A fun, quick read recommended for fans of Emma Straub and Meg Wolitzer.  —Kate Gray, Boston P.L., MA

(Starred review.) Dysfunctional siblings in New York wig out when the eldest blows their shared inheritance.... A fetching debut from an author who knows her city, its people, and their hearts.
