This book is an absolute delight, and the only tiny quibble I have with it is that the ending seems rushed. The rest is sheer perfection.

Nina Lee Hill is the only child of a non apologetic wanderer named Candice, who basically abandoned her as a toddler in order to travel the world unencumbered. Nina is raised by a nanny whom she adores. Nina doesn’t have a clue who her father was.

One day, disrupting Nina’s everyday fully structured life, a lawyer arrives to inform her of her father’s death, and of the existence of a vast family. Nina lives her life abiding by her strictly scheduled day-planner. That, needless to say, goes out the window.

Through many and varied adventures, Nina comes to know this extended family, and even picks up a boyfriend along the way. The book has been compared to #BridgetJones but in my opinion it far surpasses the earlier work, similar only insofar as the daily diary entries. I simply loved this book.
