For most part this was a 3/5 book, but it was so stereotypical in all the wrong ways that it took some of the joy out of reading it.

The story is not in fact a series of letters, but the stories of four daughters lives after there mother passes away built around a journal she kept and a final letter she left to each of them.

The narrator did make it enjoyable, switching nicely between the characters, but I'm not a big fan of the British accent and this did wear thin at times.
