I really enjoyed this. The writing was excellent. The story was a little predictable here and there. And a little ending a little unbelievable, but overall it was a fun, quick read that hit on a lot of issues.
The writing was really great. Dawson really delved into the psyche of her characters, even those characters that were not narrating. And each character was very individual with distinct personality. The story flowed well and made me want to turn the pages.
I loved the character of Rowan. He was a balls to the wall kind of guy with no qualms about making his thoughts known, for the most part. He did hold some emotional baggage that he obviously needed to address (but this was par for the course for the whole family).
Overall, I would highly recommend and I'm looking forward to reading more from this author.
