My Brilliant Friend is first. Be sure to make liberal use of the character list in the front. Lots of characters and families and names. It took me a long time to learn and remember them, but if you have a paper copy it is easy to look back. I think the books relate most to us baby boomers because those are the years we have lived.

So many love her Neapolitan books; I look forward to them. I like when books connect with our personal lives.

When all was finally revealed, one could only breathe, "Of course!" It all seemed inevitable in retrospect. Wonderful series of books. I'd like to read them all again some day.
