As far as Kristin Hannah goes, this was not an amazing life-changing book for me like some have been. Most the characters were hard to like or relate to for the first half of the book. At its heart, this story is about emotional repression and ultimately our ability to make changes and heal relationships.

This was as good as any of Kristin Hannah’s books. I was annoyed with Joe for being a little slow to connect the dots, but it was easy to forgive him given his own mental and emotional state. There were a few too many convenient coincidences, but I guess situating it in a town with less than a 900 people makes plot devices easy. I also thought I would’ve preferred some of her choices near the end to be different. All in all, a good book.

This was an okay read! Not great and not bad. I liked the characters and character development but the plot was pretty predictable. It was a nice character read.
