Kitty Continues returns to the Porter family’s Kitty and her five adult children’s lives. The novel begins with Kitty, the matriarch, in a first-person voice. Kitty catches the reader up and introduces her five children, their families, professions, lives, and the crises resolved in the first novel, Counting on Kitty. Kitty’s voice is written in a conversational, first-person style that often resembles a personal blog or family newsletter: “I thought I’d get you caught up on what has happened since you first heard from me.” This straightforward approach makes the narrative accessible and reinforces its focus on the ordinary rhythms of family life.
