I enjoyed this in the end but found it quite slow and the first 200 pages could be done away with! 

There were a couple of characters I really enjoyed, Nell and Ferdia. I will miss them!

Oh, just great. Funny, clever, charming and so smartly done. The fact that she can introduce a complicated family without it feeling like a chore. And the characters, they just feel real. I was properly invested in them. So enjoyable. Not a happy ever after or a sad ending. Just a real one, which is to say not quite an ending at all. But very satisfying.
