Review: Loved this book! - It was hard to put down and I DID NOT want it to end! I completely recommend this book to anyone that loves a good family saga! Once I started it, I could not put it down! I loved the complexities of the characters and there are so many surprises along the way! Pick up a copy, you won’t be sorry you did!
Review: A Thoroughly Enjoyable Light Read - I had been intending to read this book for such a long time, not having heard anything about it, any reviews or the storyline - and I am glad I finally did! I was first drawn in by the cover (dreadful, I know, as we aren't meant to judge books by those) which is actually quite often what will first attract me to a book if I haven't heard of the author before. The initial basis of this book was so heart-wrenching; being able to see that something tragic and horrible would come of the terrible, but well-meaning decision of David in the beginning. The ending was promising, but with surprises along the way that meant it didn't exactly form the fairy tale ending I was expecting (a good thing - surprises and lack of fairy-tale 'goodness' is what makes a good book!) I felt that I really understood the characters and followed along with their pain, their joy, their secrets and their longings for togetherness which would never really come - but at the same time, I didn't feel so engaged or connected to them that I ever once protested out loud to them (odd sounding perhaps, but the amazing books will always make me whisper "Don't do it!" when I know someone is going to do something incredibly stupid!). I can't quite explain why I wasn't as drawn in as I could have been by these intriguing characters, but the charming writing style may have taken a bit of the emotion out of their experiences. All in all, probably the only thing I would really have wanted was to have more depth on the topic of Down Syndrome. I felt that while Caroline's perspective on trying to raise a child with Down Syndrome was thorough and enlightening, it would have been great to get Phoebe's perspective too. I also felt frequently that the descriptions of Phoebe were trying to paint her as being beautiful despite the Down Syndrome, rather than describing her features as beautiful in themselves. A good book, and I highly recommend it for a light read.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome book
*by K***S on October 4, 2025*

This is one of the best books I’ve read in a long time. Lives of families involved are portrayed in very real ways. The impact of challenges is felt strongly by the characters. This story recognizes the tragedies in life and how these are handled by the characters and left me with an appreciation of the choices we make, even when those choices aren’t fully understood.
