I had a tough time getting into this book, and though part of it was simply timing, I think another part was just how unlikeable the main character Wallace was at the start. However, I am very glad I stuck with it because my patience was rewarded with excellent character development, a lot of heartfelt moments, and the sense that I, like Wallace, had become part of a lovely little chosen family in the end.
