Read: Flashlight by Susan Choi ★★★★★ 📚

Louisa's parents were people for whom things went wrong. The car got lost in the lot, or the driving directions were bad, of the check to the gas company never arrived and the stove was turned off. They misplaced things, or forgot facts, or disagreed on the facts, with each other or with other people.

Louisa is walking with her father Serk on the beach at night. Next day she if found had ground and he has vanished. The book follows various family members across the generations. It took me a while to get started, then I could not put it down.
