As a member of an Irish Catholic family, I totally understood, loved, and felt the family dynamic. The Brennan's are lovable, and you'll be rooting for them throughout, much like I was rooting for the Connellys! I really enjoyed the changing povs, with each chapter beginning with the other side of the final conversation of the previous chapter. I look forward to Tracey's next book, as I really enjoy the relatable Irish families, references, and sayings I heard growing up

Messy, messy family drama that felt entirely too unplausible, but the drama-monger in me wanted to get all the dirt.

I could not put this book down. It’s so well written and I loved the author’s writing style. The characters were well rounded and even if I didn’t like some of them, received my sympathy. With added twists and turns and plot twists, I was so engrossed in this book from the first page. It didn’t fell too dramatic or out of touch with reality which I loved. Seriously, such a good book.
