Perhaps closer to 3.5 stars. The characters are well-defined and the book is enjoyable and easy to get through. And take the premise with a grain of salt. That bad CSI episode of their connection is a bit of a stretch but I guess that’s what it takes.

As a Jamaican American so much of the story was so relatable. The term for Cyril is Papa was a rolling stone. But Dimple, she bothered me so much sometimes and she was so self involved and messy. But her siblings came to her side in the end.
