This was a hard review to write. So much happened in this book from multiple points of view. I could understand where each person was coming from after the tragedy. I didn’t agree with some of the choices made, but I understood them. I was so angry with Jude. As a mother, I felt she grossly overstepped boundaries. Miles, the twins’ father, was very patient and loved his family very much. I was impressed with his devotion. I don’t want to spoil the book by discussing the teens, but what happened was heartbreaking and sobering. Kristin Hannah had to have spent a great amount of time thinking about how each person was affected and her words brought the story straight to the reader’s heart. I could not help thinking how I would have reacted. Would I have remained sane or clear-headed? This was another one of Ms. Hannah’s beautifully crafted stories.
