Reviews

[Kim · Rating 4 out of 5]

Alan and Meg seperate and the book follows their path towards acceptance. Meg begins to look forward to her sons running coach dropping him home every day. She plans an 18th birthday party for her daughter alongside her husband. This was a nice easy read with a comfortably predicatable ending.

[Kathy · Rating 3 out of 5]

Uncomfortable reading. a) typos in the book is always disturbing to me and b) some of the characters were just so annoying - Emma, Alan and Katherine in particular. Just wanted to punch them all in the nose (a term used a few times in the book). Pleased with the ending. Readable if not a little predictable.
