Lucky Boy by Shanthi Sekaran

This book was incredible. Like read it while doing my hair, waiting for the carwash, right before bed and sometimes random times 5 minutes where neither of my two kids needed me, kind of incredible.
The story was heartbreaking. No matter how it would have ended, I wouldn't have liked it. I empathized so deeply with both women, and both experiences. They were both incredibly well-developed characters who each had such fierce love for Ignacio.
The ending broke my heart. I stopped reading with about 10 pages to go, and I put off finishing until just now because I didn't want it to be over. I didn't want to see what Iggy's fate was. He would have been great with either side. But man. I was conflicted all the way through to the last page, and I'm still chewing on it.
Great, great read.
