This was an okay book, but there were very few content warnings so I was blindsided by them.

While not technically incest, William divorces Julia and then marries her sister, which feels extremely weird.

4.5 ⭐️! so breathtakingly beautiful and heart wrenching - this book so perfectly walked through the difficult emotions of love and heartbreak and human suffering and family trauma. taking off half a star because it did almost send me into a depressive episode with all its utter sadness

A really beautiful family saga, a touching (if slow-moving) homage to LITTLE WOMEN. Humans are a messy and complicated bunch, and yet! We choose to love them and love them hard. The whole book made me want to hug my own parents and siblings tight.
