My trouble with the book is that it has no story, and no drive. Rather, each chapter centers on some Holiday during the year. And with each Holiday, we get another droll incident about something mildly shocking done by the grandma.
At first, I thought it was charming. And then, pretty quickly, I thought it was getting old.
