There are alternating points-of-view which I liked since this has become a dysfunctional family and I liked the children's viewpoints as they matured. The oldest, Cody, was insecure and had antisocial behavior; Ezra was a peacemaker and wanted a normal family; and Jenny, the youngest, was very determined, yet cautious. Pearl became complicated and used verbal abuse, mostly at Jenny.
I was curious about the title: Ezra owned a restaurant and featured a varied menu so if a diner felt hungry for a specific food, he would try to make it. He was always trying to get his family to eat together but something always happened and they never finished a meal at his restaurant. I felt sorry for Ezra through most of this novel because he was so easy going and put up with Cody's terrible behavior toward him.
I felt love existed in this family even though the fractures in their relationships were evident. Tyler creates and develops characters in a way that, for me, brings them to life. She writes about world-wide subjects: forgiving and loving each other, being kind and accepting, and the moral obligation of parents to their children and children to their parents. ( )
