The Vacationers

The Vacationers / Emma Straub 292 pgs.

Jim and Franny planned a fabulous family vacation with their two kids and one other couple for their 35th wedding anniversary.  Well that was great until Franny found out Jim had recently cheated on her with a very young woman at work...she found out when the company fired him after many years of service. But the vacation was paid for so they went.  Also in attendance are their son Bobby with his much older girlfriend Carmen and their daughter Sylvia who will be leaving for college just days after the end of the trip.  Franny's dearest friend Charles and his husband Lawrence are also along.  They are holding their breath waiting to here about a possible adoption...something they have been working on for over a year.  Clearly everyone here has issues although none are insurmountable.  A couple of weeks together do shed some light on issues.  A bit of a chick lit title.
