Wanted more from the ending. And was totally disengaged when author would reference “wrinkled mid-40s hands” and suggest 11 year old siblings run off to play on playgrounds and take turns on the slide. Nah those are going to be moody preteens on their phones. The ending felt really out of touch with anyone over the age…30?
