Meg Mason is an auto-read author for me now and I hope she has another offering soon. I wasn't always happy with the characters or with what the author put them through, but they feel like real people that I've known and am sorry to say goodbye to, in the end.

I loved this book - I preferred it to sorrow and bliss despite a potentially more obvious storyline I just really loved the characters.
Was one of those books I couldn’t put down
