4.0

Loved the pacing of the book, but was a bit disappointed with the ending. It felt like the main character's purpose wasn't justified or didn't seem to have a closure. After all the time he was searching for his daughter, they have a reunion but don't seem to try and create a life together instead he creates a life with someone else. Understandabley, they both have lived and been apart for so long. But it would have been more satisfying to have the main character care for his daughter now that they found each other after all the lost time.
