A dysfunctional family of sisters and their prickly matriarch running a Michelin starred family business outside San Francisco.

I had a hard time getting into this book (the characters were introduced so quickly, I couldn’t keep them straight).

Ultimately, I enjoyed reading a book centered on sisters - even ones who treat each other poorly.
