Almost put it down in the first half because of unlikeable characters, but kept going. Second half was definitely better. Nice ending, tied up in a bow.

I wanted to like this book. I definitely enjoyed parts of it enough to finish it, but every single character was unlikable, except for maybe 2 of the grandkids.
