The Wrong Family was such a shocking and wild read. After I finished, I was left speechless because I really didn’t know what to say.

It’s hard to describe this book, because I feel like it is best to go into this book knowing as little as possible. So, in a few words, Juno lives with the Crouch family. Prior to moving in she thought Winnie and Nigel Crouch had the perfect life. She quickly learns how wrong she was. Everything was a façade.

It took awhile for me to get hooked into this story. It’s told in third person, and everything in the beginning feels sort of vague. Because you don’t know the entire situation, and it’s very wordy. And a little slow paced.

But as the story progressed and secrets were revealed- I was hooked. This book is wild and full of twists and turns. And oh, so very dark. I hadn’t expected that when I first started. Quite honestly, I wasn’t sure what I had expected. Nevertheless, around 50% I was entertained, and my mouth was wide open. It was hard to tear me away from this story. The complete opposite of what I thought would happen in this story happened. And I appreciated that it was so unpredictable.

This is a story about a family trying to uphold this perfect façade when in fact they are harboring this dark secret. The book really makes you think. Because you have these characters and you spend most of the book, trying to figure out their psyche.

But in the same breath, I will say towards the end, it got too crazy for my liking and I would have liked a stronger and more memorable ending.

Final Thoughts

The Wrong Family is a dark, addicting and twisted story centered on family dynamics.
