This is my kind of book, a story about a family with all kinds of growing up and out to do, lots of decisions to make, the death of the matriarch to deal with, etc. It reminded me of the Rabbit books by John Updike, partly because of where it is set, New York state. I was a little put off by the "secret language" that the daughter, Julia, and her friends engage in, but otherwise I really enjoyed the whole book.
