This is such a good subject, but I think the author had screwed it.
I can see why this is one of the best seller on the billboard. It looks like being written for the reading club. A bunch of deliberately whining characters pretended they were in deep grief. Does it remind us some soap opera? Even worse, these self-centric persons thought everyone owed them something irreplaceable. Give me a break and take a hike! There are far more miserable stories out there, and I don’t know how these people would act, if those "real" mishaps happened to them.
David had made an unethical decision to hide away her Down’s syndrome baby, Phoebe. Since then, his conscientious guilt haunted him and made his family covered with a gloomy sentiment. His wife, Nora was told that Phoebe was dead by birth while she even had no idea the second of the twins was existed. Maybe it was me, I just do not get how she can be so put out for such a long time for the daughter she even never seen. The author also puzzled the reader with the bad relationship between David and his son Paul. She didn’t give the reader much information and straightly assumed Paul was angry with his father. If he was such sentimental person, why he did not say anything about her mother’s affair? Such a messed up family.
Maybe I have asked too much for the story to be rational, but it should be reasonable for the readers to relate and sympathize. I have my own children, but I just don’t see and feel it the same way as the author is trying to convey. Three stars, because on the Caroline and Phoebe side, the story was much pleasant (though like a fair tale) and better articulated. I feel sorry the author has spoiled such a good subject.
