About this listen
A Reese Witherspoon x Hello Sunshine Book Club Pick
FORECAST: Storm clouds are on the horizon in L.A. Weather, a fun, fast-paced novel of a Mexican-American family from the author of the #1 Los Angeles Times bestseller Esperanza’s Box of Saints
L.A. is parched, dry as a bone, and all Oscar, the weather-obsessed patriarch of the Alvarado family, desperately wants is a little rain. He’s harboring a costly secret that distracts him from everything else. His wife, Keila, desperate for a life with a little more intimacy and a little less Weather Channel, feels she has no choice but to end their marriage. Their three daughters - Claudia, a television chef with a hard-hearted attitude; Olivia, a successful architect who suffers from gentrification guilt; and Patricia, a social media wizard who has an uncanny knack for connecting with audiences but not with her lovers - are blindsided and left questioning everything they know. Each will have to take a critical look at her own relationships and make some tough decisions along the way.
With quick-wit and humor, Maria Amparo Escandón follows the Alvarado family as they wrestle with impending evacuations, secrets, deception, and betrayal, and their toughest decision yet: whether to stick together or burn it all down.
A Macmillan Audio production from Flatiron Books
"A rollicking and hilarious family drama...One of the most endearing L.A. novels in recent memory." (Publishers Weekly, starred review)

Cute story, kept me engaged
Enjoyable family dynamics, well put together. The food names and descriptions made me hungry even though I wasn’t sure what they all were…

Pleasant
This is a nice, heartwarming family story but not a page turner. I’m glad I stuck it out, jt has some wonderful messages but not the best I’ve read recently.

not my favourite book
I liked the storyline about parents and there 3 children with one have cancer similar to my own sister.This story I'm afraid didn't engage me.I bought because I usually enjoy Reeces book club picks.

So Jumbled
I couldn't really keep up with this story.. so many times I had to rewind it to realize it had jumped to a different characters storyline.. was all a bit too random for me..

Not enjoyable
Didn’t enjoy at all. Weak story. Narrator has a habit of putting on a strange strangled voice to represent people talking and it really grated on me.
