Lucky Us

Lucky Us by Amy Bloom is a novel about a young girl named Eva, growing up in the shadow of her older sister Iris after her mother leaves her on her father's doorstep when she was is just a child. The story moves from Ohio to Hollywood, to New York and Europe with a cast of offbeat characters hard to forget.

Bloom weaves their stories together masterfully and in the end redefines what family means. A totally original, entertaining and never predictable read.
