HATED this book! I should've thrown it out the window but didnt want to litter. I skimmed the entire 2nd half just to finally get to the end to see what happened. Now I wished I hadn't even wasted that effort. I know this book has gotten great reviews but I personally thought it was one of the worst books ever. To sum it up, it's about deceit, alcholism and lack of self respect. Oh, I do remember there being something about a missing child...
Don't get me wrong, I too lost a brother and I currently work in the medical field so I should have gotten some sort of sentimental feelings from this book. Instead, it bored me to tears and made me angry with all the nonsense contained instead of focusing on the child.
Save your money and either swap it on here or just skip it altogether.
