I loved this. It’s the story of a bigamous marriage told by the daughters. I love it when you get entrenched in one side of a story and then the author switches things up and you jump over the fence to see the other side. Things are never quite how you think they are. I ended up with sympathy for everyone involved. The writing is delightful, the characters are deep and realistic especially the teenage girls, the Atlanta setting is vivid. Highly recommended.
