- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The characters and story seemed so real that I almost forgot I was reading a book!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is very very good. Steeped in the warmth & love of family, how they can misjudge despite deep love. The voice of Kirsten as a child rings true. The ending is a particular surprise & delight.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5The writing is very simple and basic and it’s terribly slow.
