I was thinking this before when someone pointed out the differences between Lina and Howard, but after that overheard prematurely ended conversation between Howard & his friends, plus him saying her mother didn't tell her something (well her mother didn't really tell her anything), makes me think that maybe Howard isn't her father. Maybe he's related to her father, or they were all friends.
I guess we'll see.

Well, I was right about Howard & Lina's relationship, and at least we got the full story. I think I would have liked this more if it had involved her reading the entire journal before visiting the places her mother went and deciding at that point if she wanted to meet the douche, Mateo.
Overall, I really like Howard more than anyone else. Not many men would do what he was doing. Even if he did it awkwardly.

Okay, so Howard didn't know about Lina, but instead of giving an explanation the excuse was our relationship was complicated. That is a cop out. At this point, I think Lina deserves to know the story to understand why her mother didn't tell Howard about her. The -1 star is still on the table if we don't get the full story by the end of the book.
There is a journal that belonged to Hadley, so we'll see.

Why wouldn't her mother tell her that Howard was her father? Especially knowing she was dying. And if Howard was such a great guy, why hadn't she told her about him in all these years? Why couldn't she just stay with her grandmother and meet her father first?
If the full story of why he wasn't involved isn't in this story that will be -1 star.
