There are six siblings in the book Commonwealth by Ann Patchett. Two Keating children and four Cousins children become related when the Keating mother marries the Cousins father. They spend time together as a blended family. The story was so real I was constantly reminded of a friend of mine who also grew up in a blended family. One thing I really liked about this story is that even though the author mentions a gun, one of the kids has a gun, no gun is ever fired. That doesn't happen very often. I'm a big fan of Ann Patchett.
