Named a Best Feel-Good Book by The Washington Post
When a home aide arrives to assist a rambunctious family at a crossroads, simmering tensions boil over in this âwitty, exuberant debutâ (People) that is an âabsolute delight from start to finishâ (Sarah Haywood, New York Times bestselling author)âperfect for fans of Whereâd You Go, Bernadette and Evvie Drake Starts Over.
When Kevin Gogartyâs eighty-three-year-old mother is caught shoplifting yet again, he has no choice but to hire a caretaker to keep an eye on her. Kevin, recently unemployed, is already at his witsâ end tending to a full house while his wife travels to exotic locales for work, leaving him solo with his sulky, misbehaved teenaged daughter. Into the Gogarty fray steps Sylvia, the upbeat home aide, who appears at first to be their saving graceâuntil she catapults the Gogarty clan into their greatest crisis yet.
âBracing, hilarious, warmâ (Judy Blundell, New York Times bestselling author), Good Eggs is an irresistibly charming study in self-determination; the notion that itâs never too late to start living; and the unique redemption that family, despite its maddening flaws, can offer.
