There once was a boy in the north country. He had sisters one, two, three.
This story is a telling tale of what happens after a family suffers a great loss. I liked the way the first half of the book was told from before and after "the event". The "before" portions helped me understand Ginger and her actions better, as it also revealed what broke the Tangle family. However, the first half of the book was also quite sad and painful, and I found it difficult to like any of the characters during the first half of the book.
Ginger could focus on what mattered: her mission to keep everyone safe.
"We can't talk about it now," Ginger repeated. "We can't talk about it ever."
In part two, Star untangled the lies that the family had been living behind for so many years. As the truth came to light, I found I cared more and more. I was also very thankful for the small things Star gave me. I am an unapologetic HEA girl. I wouldn't say this was an HEA, but I would say it was hopeful. Beautiful pieces of Glory were revealed through video, and there were snippets of moments between Richard and Ginger, and Ginger and Julia. Heck, even Mimi had a moment that made her seem like there was a heart deep down inside. These small interactions made me optimistic for this family, and at least I had that.
