Audiobook:
A beautiful book about a complicated family. This book is like a simple meal prepared perfectly. All the ingredients are of the best quality, and everything is prepared just as it should be. It's not showy and in your face, but in that simplicity is sheer perfection.
Maura Tierney was the perfect narrator.

I enjoyed this book overall! I found it a bit slow at the beginning but then found a steady pace and interest in reading as it progressed. It's about a multigenerational family with a focus on 4 sisters and their lives as they grow from teenage girls to adults. Each chapter switches from a different character's perspective. I wished William as a character had a bit more depth to him. He seemed like he had potential to be "known" as a character at the beginning and he went through so much but I felt we didn't get to know him very well despite him being one of the characters who's perspective the book was written from.
