I loved the characters in this book, each one complex and unique. It was hard to say goodbye to them when the book ended. Overall I found it was an enjoyable read with surprises. Maybe the ending left everything tied in a bow a little unconvincingly, but sometimes it’s nice to read a happily ever after type story. The chapters of the book being titled with songs from the late 60’s was fun, too. The whole book felt true to the era.
