desertcart.com: You'd Be Home Now: 9780525708070: Glasgow, Kathleen: Books

Review: Emotional, well-written story that handles difficult topics thoughtfully - You’d Be Home Now is a powerful and emotionally grounded novel that explores family, addiction, and the ripple effects of choices in a very human way. The story is heavy at times, but it’s written with care and intention rather than shock value. The characters feel realistic and flawed, and the emotional weight of the story builds naturally. It does a good job showing how addiction affects not just one person, but everyone around them, without turning anyone into a caricature. The perspective feels honest and reflective rather than preachy. Kathleen Glasgow’s writing style is easy to read but emotionally impactful. The pacing works well, and the story gives space for the characters to process what’s happening instead of rushing through major moments. While the subject matter is serious, it’s handled with empathy and balance. Overall, this is a compelling, well-written novel that stays with you after finishing. It’s not a light read, but it’s a meaningful one, especially for readers interested in character-driven stories that explore real-life struggles with depth and compassion.
Review: Modern, Raw, Compelling - MY SUMMARY Addiction and the ripple effect it has on family, friends, communites, towns, this country; big towns, little towns, the wealthy, the poor; everyone everywhere. Focus on a brother and sister and their harships, growth, and the things they do, good and bad, to protect, defend, and try to save eachother. MY THOUGHTS A very genuine real-life feeling story. A story of a family; mainly a brother and sister, struggling with present-day issues. A teenage girl finding her voice amongst the "noise" of high school and her peers. It really kept me hooked in an atypical way, in that it wasn't overly dramatic or graphic. It didn't keep me hooked in a "thriller" genre sort of way, but a "this is a good story and I want to see it through" kind of way; a more emotional way at a deeper level.
