The struggles of the characters were palpable, especially those of Josh and Miriam. But we can't also discount the effect this has on Caleb.
Thanks to a few kind-hearted souls, and a bit of perseverance and hardwork, the pair was able to live a life that was meant for them.
My only problem with this book was that it kind of tried to wrap itself so quickly.
Also how Maggie suffered Postpartum and Miriam seemed emotionally stable after being raped and suffering domestic violence. The dichotomy between the two sisters wasn't lost on me.
