  The Frosts, successful lawyer John and selectman Barb, are thriving and proud of their two grown daughters, Juliet, the elder, a successful architect, mother, and wife, and Sadie, who works as an art teacher in New York City. John and Barb are days away from celebrating their fiftieth wedding anniversary when John suffers a stroke while riding his bike. The resulting brain damage renders John a shadow of the man he once was. Heartbroken, Barb stumbles on some unexpected news while scrolling through his phone that causes her life to unravel at an alarming rate as she rethinks the past 50 years. Higgins' (Life and Other Inconveniences, 2019) latest is another amazing exploration of the meaning of family, this one focusing on how love changes within the confines of a marriage. Told from alternating points of view by each of the four Frosts, the novel shows readers every stage of each relationship, from loving to loathing; post-stroke, nonverbal John's perspective is exquisitely done. Readers will cherish this one to the very end. Copyright 2020 Booklist Reviews.
