Hillsboro evening book club Oct 20th.

A very beautifully written story with stories within stories. I was sucked in to the story on page 1 and just couldn't let it go. I would re-read this, even though I know the twist in the end. Such a great story!

This book was intriguing with its well developed plots and characters. It kept me guessing as to how it was going to end. I was enthralled and engaged to discovered what the thirteenth tale was.

Unique and haunting, I will be thinking about this story for quite some time.. It kept me guessing to the very end and I have to admit to almost shedding a tear at the end.

“Human lives are not pieces of string that can be separated out from a knot of others and laid out straight. Families are webs. Impossible to touch one part of it without setting the rest vibrating. Impossible to understand one part without having a sense of the whole.”

“We all have our sorrows, and although the exact delineaments, weight and dimensions of grief are different for everyone, the color of grief is common to us all.”

Really amazing story!! Just the right amount of mystery, characters,
