What makes a family a family?

? UNDER THE LAMPLIGHT-

In Family Family by Laurie Frankel, India Allwood means well, but bites off more than she can chew. Once an unpopular teenager, India grows up to be a Broadway and TV celebrity. Her latest project is a movie on adoption, but — being an adoptive mother herself — she’s sick and tired of the tragic narrative. So, she shares her distaste with the media about the movie but is then dragged into a frenzy.

Laurie, without meaning to, ends up the center of debate, accusations, and protests. The aftermath is so huge, her ten year old twins reach out to family for help, but there is more to India’s story than it seems, and the situation threatens to bring every gory detail to light.

Is family blood, love, or the people you choose to be around? The book investigates what that means, and will make you evaluate what it means to you. Even though the protagonist is put in a difficult spot, Frankel highlights the beauty of adoption and hope for a better future.
