Showing Up

Product Description

Family can lift you up or drive you straight to the edge of your sanity.When Gia arrives in Deer Valley, Utah for the family’s summer vacation, she finds her brother inconveniently scheduled his wedding and cancelled her birthday. Hoping to expect laughter, love, and maybe a little attention, she finds herself overlooked, simmering with resentment, and stumbling into one hilariously bad decision after another.Between pasta dinners and sibling conflicts, Gia’s week spirals into a chaotic mix of humor, heartache, and self-discovery. Every awkward conversation and impulsive choice pulls her closer to a truth she’s spent years avoiding: wrestling with who she is versus finding honesty and acceptance in a little chaos.Perfect for fans of humorous women’s fiction, book club favorites, and stories about imperfect families finding their way, this contemporary gem will make you laugh, cringe, and cheer for every flawed, lovable character.Told with sharp wit and emotional honesty, Showing Up by Lo Orsini is a story that reminds us that sometimes the biggest celebrations come in the most unexpected ways.Laugh, cringe, and fall in love with a family that feels a little too familiar.
