Brothers

It's Love we don't understand, by Bart Moryaert is about a family's unconventional, dysfunctional problems. In this girls family it's her, her mother, her mother's boyfriend Brodzek, her younger sister Edie, her brother Axel, and older sister Bonnie. Its summer and its hot, and they are off to there older sisters house, crammed in a hot sweaty car. Axel hates Brodzek, and Axel gets in a fight with Brodzek and beats him up pretty bad. When they get to Bonnie's they found out that there grandmother had passed, her not begging the most easiest person to talk to and begging that close made it difficult to feel any emotion. But surprisingly she had left a will, and certain items to the family, including one in which asked to take care of a man who liked to be called the "boatman". Which unexpectedly turns out to be an old man in a wheel chair, which her mother doesn't think they should take care of, but her mind is kind of switched with the remark from her daughter "Don't you think of anyone but your self". This is a point of view from the third sister, who tells how she feels about her family and situations she dealt with. I really liked this book because its detailed, about the way families get through hard times, and how different people deal with the situations fait gives them. It's at times funny, sad, and a tear jerkier at times. I would only really recommend this book to girls maybe to the ages of 11-16.
