This book is interesting and frustrating. It offers a plot which reveals very human tendencies - where you wish you could step in and tell the protagonists to pull their socks up. The ending for me is a hopeful one which redeems the frustration felt earlier on in the book.
Moderate: Ableism, Child death, Infidelity, and Gaslighting
Minor: Pregnancy

Im not satisfied with the ending to be honest.
Also about this book said to be focused about dealing with the struggles of raising a kid with ds, it wasnt really like that IMO. It was more focused about the Henry's life without their daughter.
More focused on the Henry's and less of Phoebe and Caroline.
It could be better tbh. But it was a nice read.

A little repetitive + I thought the focus would be on the daughter with Down syndrome and not on the adults.
