A lot of potentially interesting plot lines in the first two parts that never get resolved. Most of Part 3 felt like it was the ending of a different story. Too many unanswered questions, and the epilogue fell super flat. I had to reread the last page, because at first I thought the whole family was forgetting their lives, instead of Charlie confirming her suspicion with a false statement and Silas momentarily forgetting their daughter's birthday.
