This book was good from the start. I had a hard time putting it down and craved it every time I wasn't able to read it. I highly recommend it!

I liked this book a lot more than I expected to. It was an emotionally challenging read, not the fluff that I usually consume.

An endearing and intriguing story of two siblings, raised separately, after one sibling was sent away at birth having Down Syndrome. This story illustrates how decisions have the power to alter life’s course dramatically... and how those decisions have unintended impacts on those in the crossfire of a decision they knew nothing about.

I guess I'm the last person on the planet to read this book. I'm enjoying it even more than I thought I would. It's a deeply moving book, although the characters probably have more than their fair share of angst, every one of them. It's sad to think that some people can allow so little happiness into their lives, no simple joy, no true openness with another human being.

The writing was beautiful and the story interesting, but it touched some nerves and was difficult to read because of that.
