cedence's review against another edition
Vet ærlig talt ikke så mye om Nina ennå. Likte Hod og Kit, da.
Men ja det ble nok forhold og vi bare snakker sammen når vi har sex scener for min smak.
Håpte den skulle leve opp til Evelyn Hugo's Syv ektemenn, men det gjorde den ikke.
Moderate: Sexual content

Although this was a bit cheesy and on-the-nose at times, this was a fun, emotional read that I absolutely devoured.

Part 1 was interesting getting to know the Riva children in present day, while also learning of their parents pasts. It was really well done to explain the family history. I liked each Riva kid in their own way, but mostly related to Hud and Nina. The struggles Mick put his family through were awful and I struggled to like him. He really reminded me of my grandfather. June was likable in the start, but it was sad to watch her mentally decline. You grieve her with her children.
Part 2 is present day and where the “action” takes place. We know a fire is going to happen, but when, where and how it starts is the suspense. Does anyone get hurt or die? We need to find out! There’s a lot of people introduced in this part making it a bit confusing at times. I think there’s so many people introduced causing the reader confusion tactfully though? It kind of conveys how out of hand and all over this party really was. The ending was good, but emotional. I would love a follow up book of the Riva kids in the future to see how their lives turned out further down the road! I’ve gathered there’s some crossover of character in some of the authors other book, so I’m looking forward to reading those!
I will totally recommend this book to others, especially if they like historical fiction type books.
