Siv's Reviews > Ask Again, Yes

"For the rest of her life, when asked to recall her earliest memory, Kate would remember watching [Peter] run around the side of his house with a red ball in his hand and already knowing his name."

This multi-generational story of two families, beginning with two young men who meet in the NYC police academy, is chock-full of every family's struggles while being completely unique. It's pain-full and that alone took me two tries to get through. In the end it wants to tell us that we can survive most anything life throws at us. But if you're reading for a fun, literary escape, this isn't your book.
