It does not have a grandparent, parent and child sequence but great aunt (MC's mother's sister), parent ( MC) and child. And they are referred to as three generations of Riddle witches in the book (Riddle being their last names). Will it be a bit of a stretch to consider this one fit for the prompt? Considering how there isn't really a grandparent but instead her sister?

I believe the sequence listed in the prompt was merely an example. The book I used, like your choice, had great aunt—parent—child.


It includes a grandfather, a father and a son.



Wow, really...What is your opinion about it?




Chronicling three generations of an island family from 1916 to the 1970s, Land of Love and Drowning is a novel of love and magic, set against the emergence of Saint Thomas into the modern world.

Fun read with great atmosphere and setting. quick, highly enjoyable. I gave it 3.5 star review. Some of the plotting is a little chunky but really good. My entire Feminerdy Book Club liked it.
