This book …. Wow … it was amazing!! I’m just blown away by it. For such heavy subjects, they were handled beautifully! The duel POV were so well done and each character was fleshed out wonderfully. I got lost in the action of it. It was fast pace but described so well that I thought I was there. I felt like I was the one that could taste smoke in the air or was trying to catch my breath.

Honestly I had no idea they were going to connect the stories either!! What an amazing surprise !!!!

Just … it handled 9/11 really well. And then it showed all the damage that been done because of that … amazing !!!

I loved it !! And I’m happy I got to read it for book club !!
