I certainly liked this less than the other novel in the volume, What We All Long For. I found that the storylines were hard to keep track of because they were all so detailed and barely connected to each other. Every time a chapter returned to a character I felt like I had to go back and reread the last chapter they were in to remind myself what was happening. I also didn't really care about two of the three main storylines, and even the third I did find myself invested in (June and Sydney's), I only cared about for the last few chapters. It's too bad because I actually really enjoyed the last two or three June and Sydney chapters to the extent that if the novel had been based around those I probably would have rated it 4+ stars.
