When I began reading this book I was not sure if I would be able to follow so many characters, however, the author gives each of them easy-to-read chapters that helps to clarify them. Each of the characters are complex in their own ways, which makes it easy to be pulled into the story and into Sycamore Glen.
There are a few publishers that I can rely on to put quality books out on the market and one of them is Lake Union Publishing. Along with them, NetGalley provided me this book in exchange for my honest review. All opinions stated are my own.
