For Jovis,
it was an initial no-brainer. No! But then he’s not really satisfied with his
job or his earnings, and with the new house and the money, he can finally write
that novel he’s been dreaming about. So why not? So what if that means the
mother-in-law will control every aspect of their lives. That’s what happens
when you sell your soul to the devil.
Filled with
snarky sarcasm and candid humor, the story was somewhat average with a gradual
build-up. The whole story is basically the family’s transition to Crossroads
Road (yeah, I thought that was a stupid name for the community, too) with
family drama, gossip, and generally idiotic remarks paving the way.
You do feel
for Jovis and his wife. Everyone is crazy, especially the mother-in-law, who is
both irrational and unpredictable. As fast as she made you rich, she can take
it all away and make you poor again. You need a Mylanta margarita to get
through this move. The man on the cover illustrates this story well.
Is this all
worth it? You just have to see how this disastrous story plays out.
My rating: 3.5 stars
