Well, I’m not sure what to say in this review. I have really enjoyed Anne Rivers Siddons books in the past. This one starts off fine, but by the end I was left sitting in my car (listening the end of the audiobook version) and wondering “what the heck”!
The basic story is interesting and has you invested in Lilly and her life…and one that was full of loss and heartache. I enjoyed getting to know Lilly as a young pre-teen, a teenager, a young adult, and a grown-up wife and mother. And while you following Lilly as she grows up, you learn about her life, her loves, her losses, her joys, and struggles.
And then you get to the final chapter and you are left wondering what in the world happened. All I can say it it is a crazy twist and you have to really stop and think about all of the pieces of the puzzle and they finally come into place.
