A warm hug of a book. Repetitive at times, heavy handed on sentiment and a little too saccharine for my liking, but the characters were sweet and the storyline engaging. I did think Wallace'S 'good to bad' transition was a little too smooth when you considered how cold and cruel he was to start with. Apollo was just a joyous delight throughout, and I did shed a tear at he end. Overall a nice easy read that tugs on the heart strings and has a happy ending.
Graphic: Child death and Death
