[Karen · Rating 3 out of 5]

Got this book for a quarter at a library clearance book sale. It was somewhat a psychological suspense read that got slow and boring in a few spots, but was a better book than many I have tried to read lately. I could figure out pretty much who was the bad person in the end but was not 100% sure and there was a slight twist with the ending that was surprising. Not the best book, but at least I looked forward to reading it.

Predictable plot and a few characters who should be thrown out of their profession, including a psychiatrist who sleeps with his patient and a divorce lawyer who sleeps with his clients (and then assaults her). Not a fan but the characters of Livvy and Margaret Rose made it worth the read.

This is a really touching story. Whenever I pick it up again, i still cannot put it down.
