This book was a bit of a slow-burner, for me. After reading (and loving) TJR's previous novels, I felt a little bit disappointed at how long it took for me to get into this one – it actually took me a couple of months to finish it because I didnt have the urge to keep picking it up. However, when I got to the middle of the story, I really enjoyed it and it didnt take me long to finish it. 
This is a story about family – more specifically, the power and love of siblings – and overall, I really enjoyed it.
