Coco has such a beautiful way of writing and that wasn't missing at all from this book. Having loved Cleo and Frank, I knew this was going to be exceptional but I wasn't expecting to come away having loved it even more. I could see fragments of my self in each of the Blue sisters and that made me ache all the more for them. A stunning, beautifully reflective book. Hats off to you, Coco.
