Single mum Lila:
Has got her hands full with two unruly daughters.

Is the impulsive owner of a flashy sportscar.
She also:
Has a stepdad who quietly moved in after her mother died.
Has a deadline looming on a book that just won’t write itself.
Is exchanging school-gate daggers with her ex’s pregnant girlfriend.
It feels like she alone is holding up the sky.
So the last thing she needs is a stranger at the door.

Needing a place to stay.
With a million-dollar smile she doesn’t trust for a second.
Because this is Gene – the father she hasn’t seen in 16 years . . .

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Lila Kennedy has a lot to contend with in this warm, wise new novel by beloved bestselling author Jojo Moyes. Her marriage has broken down, she’s mother to two wayward daughters and she’s exasperated by her elderly, lentil-loving stepfather, who seems to have quietly moved in with them. When her estranged father suddenly appears on her doorstep 35 years after running off to Hollywood, it feels like the last straw, but she must try to learn to make the chaos of this new blended family work. We All Live Here is a family drama with laugh-out-loud moments and countless details we all recognise in our own lives, from cringeworthy interactions at the school gates to awkward intergenerational dynamics. Its multidimensional characters and the sense of joy underpinning all the mayhem make it a life-affirming read.
Customer Reviews
Fabulous read
I really enjoyed this book. Great characters and storytelling. I have been completely absorbed for the last 3 days
Fantastic
Beautiful 🥰.
Took a while to get into but really enjoyed it.
An easy 5 stars
Jojo Moyes just never misses. Was super excited to see a new book just released and couldn’t put it down.
Really interesting and enticing storylines. Love that it goes between different POVs and shows that we can’t always assume something is the truth or a lie based on our perception of things because there’s almost always something that can change a whole story. Really loved this.
