Welcome to the Kennedy household:

Lila wrote a bestseller about keeping your marriage alive, before discovering her ex was playing happy families with another woman. A woman she sees everyday at school pick-up.

Bill, her stepdad, moved in after Lila’s mum died. He’s kind, old-fashioned and driving her absolutely nuts.

Celie, Lila’s eldest, hates school. Hates it so much she’s stopped going. Her mother’s fine with that – because she doesn’t know yet.

Violet is nine and sings age-inappropriate rap songs, laughs at fart jokes and Lila dearly hopes she’ll never, ever change.

And Truant the dog, who has just bitten the American actor who’s suddenly landed on the Kennedys' doorstep.

This is Gene – Lila’s estranged father, and no one’s idea of a role model. He walked out on Lila and her mum years ago – and wherever he goes domestic discord follows.

Because Gene’s presence changes things in unexpected ways. Soon the girls discover a kindred spirit in a man always chasing life’s joy. Bill even loosens up. And Lila finds herself, astonishingly, dating.

Something is happening to the Kennedy household – but what is it?
And will it break, or save, their family?

Review

Jojo Moyes is as wise, funny and glorious as ever with We All Live Here. She never ever disappoints -- Lisa Jewell

The best book she has ever written . . . mature, compassionate, wise -- Marian Keyes

No one writes women of a certain age better than Jojo Moyes - reminding us that we matter, even when the world tries to make us invisible. It takes a master of the craft to catalogue the messy vicissitudes of life in a way that both haunts and validates the reader’s own experiences, and her latest novel proves that there is no time like the present to rewrite one’s own story -- Jodi Picoult

Enchanting, bang on. Full of silliness and sorrow. An entertaining yet tender take on how to hold a family together without forgetting who you are ― Herald

We All Live Here is so funny, touching and full of wisdom: Jojo Moyes at her very best -- Sophie Kinsella

Warm, witty and wonderful. We All Live Here is a story of family and friendship, of love, compassion and, most importantly, a timely reminder of what truly matters most. The kind of book you smile at whilst reading -- Chris Whitaker
