I had a hard time getting into this because at certain points in the beginning the main character felt more like a high school student than a grown-up. Nonetheless, once I got into the story, I was hooked. The romance was so sweet, and the magical realism parts revolving around the sisters' magical powers added an interesting element to the story. But my favorite part of this book was the exploration of complicated family dynamics and family trauma and the development of the relationship between the sisters.
