A true to life tale of Family with deep secrets
The writing style in this book reflected the character of Clare well, the style seemed childish and almost overly simplistic but when it came to the character of Josephine I felt the writing style didn't change to match the adult character. However altogether this book was a great, realistic portrayal of a family with dark secrets, trying to put on a front for the rest of the world, with a struggling mother and a dark past, this book kept me reading and was difficult to put down.
The ending I felt was lacking as it seemed unfinished but in a way that reflected the reality and rawness of the situation the characters found themselves in.
The chapter sizes were perfect and the writing style was very easy to understand. I felt the Mother's peril was very well portrayed and realistic, making it easier to feel for the character.
Overall, I would recommend reading this book as it is an excellent tribute to the dark secrets that families can carry.
