I spent the entire day with the Posts while they spent a two week family vacation in Mallorca. Unfortunately, they were all too consumed with their own personal crises to enjoy the sites or actually spend any quality time together...until the last chapter, when everyone gets what they almost wished for. 
 The most interesting characters were the peripheral ones, Carmen the misunderstood girlfriend, Gemma the homeowner lending her place for the two weeks, Joan the model/local tutor that readily gives up his summer for the whining, boring teenage tourist and Lawrence the husband of Mrs. Post's best friend. We didn't get to hear near enough from these characters. Instead, most of the story was focused on the frankly boring and unoriginal Post family. The story could have benefited from a bit more humor and a bit more compassion.
