The Second Home
by Christina Clancy
I did not know what to expect going into this book but I become 100% hooked on the Gordon family.
I feel like a while ago this book could have easily bored me but it didnt at all. I devoured it in a couple of days and was actually quite sad to finish it.
This book follows the life of the Gordons, written in multiple perspectives of the childers Ann, Poppy and Michael. Following such a large timeline there is obviously alot going on and alot of character change and growth.
I thoroughly enjoyed the writing of this book and highlighted a fair amount of gorgeous quote and stand out sentences. The characters were so well written and with each having their time to be loved, and disliked it made it feel all the more raw and realistic.
I loved the main setting of Cape cod and the secondary setting of Milwaukee also the numourous other snippets of locations. But the cape cod setting and home especially, really stood out and with the turn of some events became a sad place for a time even to me as a reader.
I became so interested and intrigued by this family which really does not happen that often for me in these styles of books, so that's saying something. I would 100% pick up another book by this author and highly recommend.
If you have read the Forests by Emily perkins and enjoyed it I think you would enjoy this one but this one is better!
