I'm not sure exactly what the... point? On this one was. I saw some themes on home, parenthood, sacrifice, etc. Yet it all seemed to lack something for me.
The plot itself seemed pretty predictable, and for the book was just weirdly crammed. I feel like perhaps we needed more space to explore what the author was doing and seeing, more tension needed created for it to really pack an umph.
Additionally I really just did not like that romance?
It was just kind of ick and felt very awkward. I had other icky feelings on how parenthood, death of a parent, children at risk felt clumsily handled but I think this just wasn't for me.
