Without a Backward Glance by Kate Veitch

4.0

I ended up really liking this book, but for the first half of it the characters were driving me crazy. I was annoyed and frustrated at so many of them. I kept thinking why are Laurence and Olivia the most mature people here? However, by the end this dysfunctional family (and really, which family isn't a little dysfunctional) had grown on me. I liked the feelings of resolution and new beginnings and hopefulness that it ended on (even if I still don't really like Rose, even if I think she is truly one of the most selfish characters I have come across).
