A story of trauma and connections and how they ripple through families and generations, The Break tells the story of a group of people and the resilience of women.
This book made me very sad from start to finish. It was well-written and the audiobook was well narrated, giving the characters voices. The characters were all complex and deep creating thought-provoking stories that wove together seamlessly.
