Surviving the house of horrors of their youth to become functioning, if scarred, adults and Lucy meeting her twenty-five-year-old daughter Libby was really only the beginning of how things turned out for the four. The Family Remains takes place directly after the events from its predecessor, but also provides readers with alternate timelines and point of views to wrap up the next installment of a severely damaged family. Thirty years after a sister and brother fled from the dysfunctional and unsafe home at 16 Cheyne Walk in Chelsea, they are reunited once again in London. And what about his full-fledged stalking with the initial intent to make luv in da club to him (without consent most likely)?
Do you think Rachel and Lucy will continue to be friends, or do you think their bond in common is too painful for them to maintain a relationship? Trouble starts even before the honeymoon is over, and Rachel realizes the man she has married has a very dark side. If you’ve not yet read THE FAMILY UPSTAIRS, choose it for your next book club pick and discuss as a group how the story both functions as a sequel and stand-alone novel. Rachel is a cautionary tale, reminding us that even an intelligent self-possessed woman can be duped and rush into bad decisions, although Rachel’s strength in dealing with a nightmare situation is admirable.He tells no one else and leaves in the middle of the night so Lucy, who is temporarily living with her two young children at Henry’s flat, won’t find out he is chasing after Phin. He’s had an obsession with him for the past thirty years and has finally gotten a bead on where he might be. Lisa is a number one New York Times and Sunday Times author who has sold over ten million books worldwide and been published in over twenty-five languages. Q: The Lamb family home plays a large role in the first novel, but it’s being sold off in this one and we barely spend any time in it.
A: I do not believe that Henry will ever be healed, no, and in the corners of my mind I see a dozen more adventures for Henry to have in various guises. Henry already chained him to the radiator and forced him drink love position that poisoned, didn’t he? As they all race to discover answers to these convoluted mysteries, they will come to find that they’re connected in ways they could have never imagined. This is slated as a standalone sequel, but if I hadn’t read The Family Upstairs before this, I’m not sure I would have been as invested in the plot or its characters.We become reacquainted with the Lamb family, Lucy, with her two children, Marco and Stella, her brother, Henry, and Libby, haunted by the trauma of their past. Twenty-six years is long enough to doubt your recollection of things, to wonder if maybe things really did happen the way you think they happened” (69). They inform her that her husband, Michael, has been found dead, apparently murdered, in the cellar of his house in the South of France. However, The Family Remains could be read as a stand alone book because Lisa Jewell does include many details about the previous book in the sequel.
