I enjoyed reading this book. If you like complicated, family drama this is the book for you. Definitely makes you think about the things that go on & the dynamics behind the walls of other peoples’s homes.

I liked this just fine. It seems like it might be a ‘me’ problem, but the hops ahead through time sometimes felt jarring and inconsistent. The portrayal of addiction and mental illness felt genuine to me.
