Addams Chronicles: Everything You Ever Wanted to… door Stephen Cox
A fantastic and fun history of The Addams Family TV show and beyond.
Cox, Stephen. Our Child of the Stars. E-book ed., Jo Fletcher Books, 2018.
A spaceship crash-lands in a rural community. An alien baby survives. A kindly nurse and her family take it in and raise it in secret. Not quite as sentimental as it seems, but almost so. A Child of Two Worlds, a sequel delayed by the pandemic, was published in 2021. 3.5 stars.

Due to my ill-timed slump, it took me longer than usual to complete this. Nevertheless I did find myself intrigued by the overall premise of the story. Once diving into the read, the reader is thrown into the Woodstock era where we meet married couple Gene and Carol, a troubling duo whose lives soon spin of control when dealt with death, grief, deception, infidelity, and substance abuse. Fast forward, we meet 'Corey', a special 'boy' that comes along and everything changes.
I won't go too much into it since it'll spoil the story but this is ideal for readers who are looking to steer off their usual route and indulge themselves with a family oriented, science fiction mixed type of story.
To close this out, "Our Child of the Stars" was a debut that didn't particularly stand out and didn't fall in my favor, but the concept was unique and refreshing, and I would recommend this novel if you're looking to step out of your comfort zone. Yet be warned, it can be a hit or miss, that's for sure.
