I have a love/hate relationship with this book.
Overall I did enjoy it, but I wouldn't probably read it again. I felt there was a little bit too much crammed in, with not enough detail. I did like the concept and most of the characters, though I feel at times there should have been less focus on some.
My main dislike of this book is the main character, Sam. I could not stand him and he has majority point of view. I found him, a waste of a character and honestly had me sympathizing with both his estranged wife and his angry daughter. I think his brother summed him up perfectly, a taker and a user. He let his daughters down and the memory of his marriage. I had hoped there would have been more from Helen, more explanation instead of finding it all out from Sam. I wish more had been said about Lara and her relationship with Marc.
All in all I think the concept was good but too much was shoved in with not enough time on the details with the ending seeming somewhat rushed and almost unresolved.
