A great read and extremely realistic characters, my honest reason for this not being a 5 star read is simply because sometimes the characters’ s choices made me so angry it was hard to remember it’s only fiction! 
Have tissues ready as the last 50 pages or so made me cry a ton. Another great Kristin Hannah read and I definitely plan to read the sequel.

A well-written, emotional story of two girls/women going through life together as best friends. Quite some tough moments included.
