The Second Home by Christina Clancy
3.0
I received an ARC of The Second Home.
I have mixed feelings about this book, and if half stars were possible, this would get a 3.5. Much was beautifully written and, truth be told, I don't finish books that don't hold my interest so, from that standpoint - I would recommend it. The siblings were given enough (or more than enough) depth to have substance, but there were other key characters that were not fleshed out or were one dimensional stereotypes, and I think the story would have been better served by greater insight or a bit more backstory. Another 50-100 pages might have made the difference.
