there were several moments i wanted to pick amadeo up by his neck and shake him around. reading about his alcoholism and how it affected his ability to be there for his family was hard. but it made it all the more satisfying when he had a his ‘come to jesus’ moment towards the end of the book. (when i thought what had happened with connor ACTUALLY happened…wow i was about to be so mad at this book.)
i loved angel as a character. she was trying so hard and was navigating the shitty hand she had been dealt all while trying to raise her baby. and deal with her dad. and her grandmother’s illness. and her maybe feelings for a friend…..she needed a hug FOR REAL.
for all of their hardships and the difficulties they faced as a family unit, i really do like that the book ended on a hopeful note.
