After the flashbacks I felt it drag; the vignettes could have been edited down significantly. Enjoyed the journey more than the ending.

This book reminded me so much of Shameless, and I loved it. TJR did such a good job about showing every single point of view and turning it into a heartbreaking but hopeful story. I loved this book so much.
