I am not much for a book that is mostly contemporary literature, but TJR really just does it differently. I love the different POVs, the stories within stories, and the character development. This book was emotional, made me laugh, and made me really think. The story was truly beautiful. And I really enjoyed the relationships between the siblings. I also really love that some of the characters that were talked about were in other books that she wrote. I was fun recognizing characters that I had already read about. The only reason that I took .25 off was because it seemed to drag on near the end.
