This one was a bit of a mix for me. Overall I enjoyed it- the story was unique and I liked the different perspectives. It reminded me a little bit of The Immortalists- a long, stretching family story that was mainly sad. The end of the book seemed to drag on a bit, but overall, happy to have read it, but probably not for everyone.
