Loved it. Kept sneaking back to read a bit more, woke up early to read some and was so invested in the characters. The story of a dysfunctional family, the tragedies they have to deal with and the ghosts and regrets they carry with them. It's told from the point of view of the 4 main characters, and you learn more and sympathise with each of them as you understand more about what has taken them to where they are. I was dreading how it was going to end, but the end is deliberately ambiguous with the final sentence being one any of the 4 characters could have said. I think. IRL, William started Scouts yesterday. I didn't think he was a t all ready as he seems so young compared to the others, but he looked so smart and grown up in his shirt I almost blubbed. He seemed to really enjoy it so hopefully he'll stick with it. He's got one term with Libby before she moves on to to Explorers.
