The Proper Family series by Chrissie Manby follows an extended family across six books published between 2014 and 2017. Each book centers on a different family occasion: a holiday, a Christmas gathering, an adventure, a wedding, and seasonal celebrations. The series includes both full-length novels and shorter seasonal entries like Falling Leaves and Fireworks and Top of the Naughty List.

The books are warm, humorous women’s fiction that builds familiarity with the family across entries. Starting with Proper Family Holiday (2014), the series invites readers into the kind of messy, loving family dynamic that Manby handles well.
