A review by briannethebookworm
When All Is Said by Anne Griffin

3.0

Over the course of a Saturday night at a hotel bar in Ireland, Maurice Hannigan toasts five people who have shaped his life. Throughout his toasts, Maurice shares the stories that built his life, triumphs and tragedies.

I was really drawn in by the premise of this one, and it was a little disappointing to me. For some reason I struggled to connect with the people Maurice was toasting to. I liked that there were some little surprises that Maurice finds out that alter how he was viewing a few of the events in his life. The ending did get me a little choked up, but I wish I had been more invested during the rest.
