As someone who works in the environmental field, this book was right up my alley! I loved this book so much - not only because of the topic around environmental issues, but because the writing was so amazing. The story was so well thought out and truly a beautiful story. This story is told from the viewpoint of triplets, with each chapter rotating through their viewpoints. Each triplet has their own unique voice. 
I think it's amazing Frankel took this story of something that has happened and is happening to communities across the county (and across the world), and turned it into a very readable story. Frankel accurately displayed the stories of so many affected by groundwater contamination. 
This book sucked me in. I became so emotionally invested in the triplets, their families, and their town. Their pain was my pain, and I was getting so frustrated over the lawsuit and all the hurdles.
