Kristin Hannah does it again, if I wasn’t reading the book, I was thinking about the book. The last 30 pages destroyed me

Like all Kristin Hannah books, you expect a gut punch. This book is no exception! I cried from joyous moments as well as the painful ones. I found myself rooting for the main characters so often, they felt real, like I was going through this with them. The only reason I rated 4.5 and not 5, is that I would have liked to see Kristin dive into the sister's past and more into what divided them initially, and express things about their parents. If there had been just a tad of background, this is easily a 5 star read. If you have children (i do) there are some trigger warnings, but this is an excellent read!
