I wish they had realized they were related at the end, but I was still pretty satisfied with the ending. I wish that each romantic relationship hadn’t felt pretty much the same though- older guy, younger woman. It felt like I was sort of just reading the same story structure over and over throughout each generation. But other than that it was really good!!!
