I just could NOT get into this book at all. I simply picked it up thinking I could relate to the infertility aspect and
I was looking forward to feeling some emotions… but all I felt was bored. Womp Womp. The story certainly had some potential but it just fell flat in my opinion. If it didn’t bother me so much to not finish a book, I would have given up and moved onto a more interesting read after about 50 pages 🤷🏼‍♀️

I can’t finish this book. This is the most boring book I have ever tried to read. I can’t stand how it is written. The conversations are not normal every day conversations between people. The author is trying to be way too poetic and I’m sorry but people just don’t talk like that.

I really enjoyed this book, although I there were times it was difficult to follow. I really felt for Paige and Mal and the littles.

There was great potential for an amazing story here, but the author did a poor job of pulling the reader into the story. The dialogue felt forced, there was virtually no character development and it all moved at a very strange, slow pace. But it did keep me interested to see how it would all turn out between the woman, her husband and her stepson, so it wasn't all bad.

Easy read, although no much excitement.
