Gold by Chris Cleave
4.0

This book was a story about lives, about the choices we make, about painful pasts and presents, and about how we cope. I love stories like this and I especially love when a story like this is made so much more lovely by Chris Cleave's writing. I was hooked from the beginning and raced through the book. The only thing I felt to be somewhat unrealistic was the way Kate was so understanding and forgiving of Zoe, despite Zoe's really awful choices throughout the book, but as a forgiver myself, I can kind of understand that too. Overall a really good read.
