I think the plot of the book is very interesting. Very slow paced and I enjoyed how we watch the characters grow and age, where life takes them. Overall, the ending of the book left me confused. My last critique would be I really dislike the punctuation style, the author does not use quotations when characters are speaking which makes it difficult to know when a sentence ends and a thought begins.
