Sad sweet
Hello, Goodbye was a sweet and sad read. The novel follows a family on their last vacation as a whole because the mother has terminal cancer. The story follows the three of them as well as the friends invited to join them for a few days at a resort. I think it's pretty beautifully done - switching viewpoints between the mother, the father, and the eighteen year old daughter. There's a few spots where it feels like the novel is trying too hard (a scene involving makeup made me groan), but overall it's lovely.
