Helpful Score: 1
A novel by the author of The English Patient. This book pulls you immediately into the lives of two sisters, Anna and Claire, and their different bonds to an orphaned neighbor boy, Coop, who came to live in an old log cabin on their land. The novel is told by each of them, talking in the present and the past, and winds through a tale that holds you spellbound until the very end. The story is wrapped around how each of them respond to a single event in time, and how it informs the rest of their lives. It is a roller coaster of emotion, memory, what could have been, and what really is - for each of them. I could not put it down from the first page to the last page.
