The Nest by Cynthia D'Aprix Sweeney

Four siblings are promised a huge amount of money from a trust fund, which they will receive once the youngest of them celebrates her 40th birthday. They call this fund 'The Nest', and they have always been impatient to receive it. Then one day, the siblings are shocked to find out that most of the money is gone because of the eldest brother's scandal.

This is an intelligent and witty story about a dysfunctional family, a reflection of how people can get lazy and unimaginative when they feel that huge amounts of money is their birthright. This is a story filled with selfish, greedy, but interesting characters. While the characters are not particularly likeable, the novel is a pleasure to read.
