***MY HONEST REVIEW OF SERIOUSLY***

B.B. Motley grew up around his family’s unusual career, and it always embarrassed, and humiliated him. So, he knew he had to distance himself, and as an adult he left that life behind. Now as a well-respected lawyer, he is being reviewed for senior partnership. But as his family tracks him down and shows up during the interview, mayhem ensues.


A family of “clowns” is fun and games for a while, but it sounds like it could be overkill pretty fast. Even though I thoroughly enjoyed meeting B.B.’s family, I could see where he would want to hide from them in the real world. It was genius of the author making B.B. stand for Bobo. I thought that was hilarious. This could be a fun and successful theater production. I loved the ending, and I can even see the story continuing with B.B. in the courtroom presenting cases, dressed like Bobo.
