Well written novel that explores the family dynamic and tension among everyone when a court case threatens to upend this safe little community. What I really liked about this book was there were no concrete answers to the issues posed. It really got me thinking about what I would do if I was a certain character at the time. We are reading it for book club and I have no doubt, we are going to have some lively discussion around it.
Moderate: Abortion

I didn't really care about any of the characters in this book, and they all were extremely frustrating. It's unfair, but it is really hard for me not to compare this book to EINTY because I found that to be a pretty perfect book. If they weren't by the same author, or if I had read this one first, I wonder if I would feel differently? Either way, this book for me, was only ok.
