Why read it?
1 author picked Are We There Yet? as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
West has authored three books that I’d consider parenting fiction, but this one is my favorite. The main storyline follows a mom as she struggles to parent her teenager through his impulsive decisions and public failures. It also explores how a child’s behaviors or actions can often feel like a reflection on their parents. West is an expert in writing multiple POV novels, so readers get to understand these issues from every angle.
From Rebecca's list on fiction portraying realistic parenting dilemmas.
