OMG Will I ever get out of the As?

Latest book Winterton Blue by Trezza Azzopardi has an interesting premise: Dysfunctional families that never quite seem to get anywhere. Well, do they ever? I don't think there is a family in the world that isn't dysfunctional in some way or other. Has anybody ever come across a perfect family where everyone is just doing fine? Impossible. Anyway, the main characters come together & fall in love, separate & you'd think the woman would just go on, but no such luck. Well, I'm not going to tell what really happened, just that the ending was far from satisfying. And the woman was interminably stupid. but you want to know what I actually enjoyed the story!!! Maybe it's because I came from a dysfunctional family and understood.
