There was a lot happening in this story, and though it was all intertwined, it took me a bit to make sense of some of it. The story is told from different points of view, starting with two, then adding more characters until it is up to four.

Of the 4 main characters, three are family, the fourth is not related, though her life is intertwined with theirs in a few different ways. And while the story focuses on these 4, there are quite a few secondary and minor characters throughout. Some of these characters didn’t feel necessary, especially one who wasn’t introduced until one of the final chapters.

While the interlinked stories are mostly resolved, some pieces were left incomplete and a few of the resolutions felt rushed, so I wasn’t fully satisfied with the ending. I discovered after finishing the book that it is actually the middle book of a trilogy, so perhaps the loose strings and late addition of a new character are resolved in the third book.
