I enjoyed this book. It wasn't my most favourite read, obviously this indicates my rating of this book, however I did enjoy It. I enjoyed the characters, the Family, and all that they went through in their daily lives. Sometimes to read a Family Drama or Saga is good, as I mostly read romances, or psychological thrillers & mysteries. This book had a bit of romance in It, some references to the attributes to God, even though It wasn't a Christian fictional book, & 2 of the men in this family are in the Airforce & Army, so you see how they deal with that & what they have to go through living such lifestyles. This was the 3rd book in the series, & I had forgotten this was a trilogy, even though I followed the storyline. Some books demand that you start from Book 1 in order to read a series, however, some books, even though they are in a series, you can read them as Standalones. You also get insight into the tasks that have to be performed If you work on a farm with Lifestock.
