I really loved this book. The voice of the main character, the atmospheric writing and the narrative drive hooked me quickly. I loved how empathetically Erin Bartels told this story. I look forward to reading her entire backlist.
In a nutshell, beautiful writing, beautiful lake setting that makes me want to visit Michigan, characters who are flawed and realistic – all positives. I was hoping for more clear references to
God and Christian faith and how the characters struggled and grew, though. I don't regret reading the book, it just isn't one I'm jumping up and down about.
