Home Again 2020 by Roberta M Roy

An emotional and contemporary novel, Home Again 2020 by Roberta M. Roy is a deeply relatable and engaging tale of our times. The omniscient narration gives readers a bird’s-eye view into an ordinary family who has already faced extraordinary challenges long before the chaos and stress of Covid sets into their everyday lives. Thoroughly developed characters and unfiltered commentary on middle-class existence give this book an authentic feel. Time passes very quickly, but that does give readers a chance to watch the family dynamic evolve and witness these relationships fully play out, though the interactions can often feel unnatural, and the dialogue can be stilted. Incredibly timely, this is a book to which millions of Americans can relate – unpolished and imperfect in places, but ultimately a powerful story of fierce survival.
