I ended up feeling mostly disappointed in this book. It's not that it's not good - it is good, and I enjoyed listening to it, I laughed out loud at times, and felt like crying at others, and I really CARED about the characters. But I cared so much that I got really bummed when it didn't end the way I wanted it to for some of them!

The story is about Cecelia, and Tess, and Rachel. Each woman grapples with a pain that no one would want to carry. There is really no happy ending for any of them, not

I really enjoyed this book, and listening to it on CD made it even more enjoyable as the narrator was quite good.

A 3.5 star review.

The first 100 pages I absolutely loved! I couldn't put it down and raced through the chapters. But unfortunately it took a turn I hadn't anticipated, and became very dark.

It's very telling that it was Tess' story I minded the least.

A little schlocky? Perhaps. Completely implausible? Certainly.

But someone Liane Moriarty books just work. I think it's because the characters are believable even if the situations they're put in are not.

This was a wonderful book, and I loved the epilogue; all the what-if's & what would have happened-if- made you really think about how just one little difference or veering along a path can change so much. ...more
