A story of family, genetics, history, and how all these elements make us who we are. An element of mystery that serves to move the plot along, but doesn’t have you biting your nails at the unknown. Unger takes your hand and leads you down the path of each character, exploring their flaws and motives while allowing you to make your own decision on the morality of their choices.
Graphic: Infertility, Toxic relationship, and Toxic friendship
Moderate: Miscarriage, Rape, Murder, and Sexual harassment
Minor: Animal cruelty, Animal death, Pedophilia, Stalking, Death of parent, and Pregnancy
Centered around infidelity and need of a sperm donor. Rape scene is not graphic but the reaction of the rape victim (fear, sadness, depression) are quick but more triggering.organizedxchaos's review against another edition

This book kept me interested in the plot, but wasn’t anything special. I found it semi-predictable and a little heavy on the concept of “family”. The ending also dragged on a little long.
I liked Henry’s story arc the best, which was only a small portion of the whole thing.
