The premise of this book being characters connected by a mail in dna test caught my attention. It is crazy to think about and made for a good story. It alternates between Caroline and Sela's POV and has some deep themes.

I really liked that this book brought to light the importance of organ donation. I don't expect people to line up to be live donors for strangers, but at the very least say yes when the DMV asks and put it on your driver's license!

Reading a story about a character with a terminal illness is hard. I struggled to relate to her, but at the same time learned a lot.

My favorite part of the book was Walt and Caroline's marriage! I won't say more to avoid spoilers, but any part that focused on their relationship was the best.

The family drama throughout the book was well done, but slowed the hood down in my opinion. But the plot twist was such a shock.

Overall this was a good book just slow for me.

I received an advanced copy of this book through NetGalley. This is my honest review.
