Great book! I just wish it was a little bit longer! 
Loved the characters! All come with their own issues but family dynamic is lovely, especially between siblings!

Great family drama, told from multiple point-of-views! The Brennans, a big Irish family that lives in New York gives me “Blue Blood” vibes, and I love it! It was a deep story but also easy to read all at the same time!

medium-paced

Read along with #mmdbookclub this month and was happy to watch the author chat. As I began this read, I was quietly bored. I didn't see a lot happening and the characters didn't thrill me. AND THEN something happened, and then something else happened, and the characters became a bit more complex. I really liked the turn in the story and following along in life with the Brennans.
