Pineapple Street by Jenny Jackson


Star Rating: ★★★★★

Pineapple Street is such an escapist novel! I delighted in transporting myself into the upper echelons of Brooklyn Heights to see how older millennial adult children dealt with being trustees of a very large family trust, all while balancing the happiness of their parents and their partners. It's a voyeuristic novel where you read about one sibling who can't open up to her mother about wanting to give away her trust but can play tennis with her and discuss the club's poor choice in new glassware. It's a witty, sharply observed novel about the one-percenters in New York. Side note: I need this to be a mini-series or movie because I want Tilda on the screen so badly. She is my favorite character.
