We All Live Here: A Novel
The #1 New York Times bestselling author, whose books so many love, brings us a fresh, contemporary story of a woman and her unruly blended family
“Nobody writes women the way Jojo Moyes does.” —Jodi Picoult
Lila Kennedy has a lot on her plate. A broken marriage, two wayward daughters, a house that is falling apart, and an elderly stepfather who seems to have quietly moved in. Her career is in freefall and her love life is . . . complicated. So when her real dad—a man she has barely seen since he ran off to Hollywood thirty-five years ago—suddenly appears on her doorstep, it feels like the final straw. But it turns out even the family you thought you could never forgive might have something to teach you: about love, and what it actually means to be family.

We All Live Here is a family drama full of complex characters centered around Lila, a 42 year old divorcée who is navigating single parenthood and a looming book deadline, all while trying to keep the peace and get back in the dating game.

This isn't my favorite JoJo Moyes book, but it was a sweet character driven story about a very nonconventional family. Lila is a recently divorced mom with 2 daughters. She just finished writing a bestseller about marriages when her husband, Dan, left her for another single mom at the kids' school. There are several male characters in the story. They all have different roles but best if you discover them on your own. I loved Bill & Jensen, Gene redeems himself at the end (and was quite endearing), and Gabriel was obvious to figure out. It was an enjoyable but (mostly)predictable read.
We All Live Here was a fun surprise for me. This isn’t my usual type of read—I tend to gravitate toward heavier, more emotional stories—but if you’re in the mood for a light, funny, rom-com style book, this one fits perfectly. It’s quick, easy, and genuinely enjoyable without asking too much of you. It’s definitely lighter than other Jojo Moyes books I’ve read, but that’s part of its charm. A feel-good, palate-cleansing read that made me smile and reminded me that not every book has to be deep to be worth it.
