I read this in one day - what a good story.  This tells the story of the Bright family, from the early 80’s to 2019.  Through the years, they deal with their losses, grief, friendships, and loves.  I haven’t cried at a book for awhile, but I did with this one.  I believe this is the debut novel from this author - great job!
