I feel like this is my first five-star in a while. It just sucked me right in - one of the best family sagas I've ever read. The plot twists (one of which I predicted, the other I did not), the astuteness of the writing, the relatability of the characters (except Harrison, LOL)...chef's kiss. I loved it.
