Very good character study.  At times slow, but overall a good family relationship saga.

Did not enjoy the writing style. Felt the prose was super repetitive and there was a lot of clunky exposition. Characters were so one dimensional and bland. I expected more character development and it never materialized.

This book was all character development but so well written it really got my tearing up by the last couple of chapters. I will say, it’s so character heavy that parts felt unnecessary or really dragged on. By the end the full picture did help you get to the emotional side to how these characters were developing and growing. It’s a slow burn kind of book but worth it in the end.
