I have really enjoyed everything TJR has put out.
This coming of age story about 4 sibling fell just a little short for me. I did enjoy the premise of it being set over 24 hrs, but this led to too many characters being introduced in the flashbacks & I did get slightly confused. The characters are great & I relate to Nina so much!
The ending was slightly disappointing but an enjoyable ready..
