All Together Now: A Novel

Robbie Malcolm has done very well for himself, but it doesn’t matter if he is a billionaire to the cancer that ravages his body. To cancer, he is simply a short-term host. When the doctor delivers the news, he tells Robbie to spend as much time as he can with the people who mean the most to him. He doesn’t really have to think about that. It is the other three Baltimore Prep Rejects he wants to gather and bask in their warmth. They haven’t been together for six years, but when they come to the mansion on the beach Robbie has bought for the reunion, it seems little time has passed. They fall back into their accustomed roles — or do they? Secrets bubble up and threaten to blow their friendship apart.

Matthew Norman has written a terrific story of love and friendship and lies and secrets and how these things affect these well-rounded, very real characters. Readers will be completely entranced by Cat, Blair, Wade, and Robbie and their stories. The dialogue was rich and completely believable with each character having a distinct voice. The writing is simply beautiful. Don’t miss this incredible book.
