An emotional page-turner that I feel ultimately says family and community is created, not bestowed or passed along. Finding and creating such is a challenging, but worthwhile endeavor.

Loved this book and loved the audio. It was a family saga full of secrets but so nuanced with fully formed characters. The multiple perspectives was very effective for me. Highly recommend this one.
