the writing in this book was really well done, no doubt. but i can’t tell if this book was entirely too long or entirely too short. we went on a journey for over 500 pages and then the ending was wrapped up in like 20 pages and i felt like it deserved more? how does the family’s story truly end?
every character had their own flaws and it made me conflicted on who or what i was rooting for. it wasn’t just a clear “root for jacob because he was wrongly accused”. there were so many other layers that i don’t know what i feel like each character deserved.
