I wasn't sure what to expect when I read the blurb but it was so much better. It's so hard to sum up just how good this book is. I was able to warm to them.ĭon't be fooled by the Title, there is so much more to this gripping and compulsive read. At first I didn't particularly like Brendan and his family but as the story unfolds the pieces slot together it all makes sense why they act the way they do. The characters are well written, multi layered and deeply flawed.
