Wonderful generational novel about what it takes to make and keep a family with plenty of secrets, drama, and emotional baggage. The characters are beautifully complex and flawed. Marilyn and David's story which is woven throughout the present day events, really struck home, demonstrating how much conscious effort and sacrifice goes into staying in love for a lifetime, a love that many would mistake as easy and natural.

OH MY GOODNESS. A phenomenal read! 👏🏼 

It was VERY long and sometimes I had to put the book down because at points, it wasn’t as engaging as usual. But the complexity and humanness of the characters kept me coming back. I felt love for each and every one of them 🥹

So many intense moments in the book too. I was HOOKED especially when there were big revelations! 😳

I audibly went ‘NO’ when Wendy realised whose son Jonah was 😳 Aaron, the first ever kind boyfriend that she had, had had sex with Violet?! Absolute madness!


I had a big soft spot for David especially.
4.5 out of 5 stars for me, thank you ✨ Content warnings below!
