First off, I want to say I LOVED this book. Now I need to step back and complain for a minute. I was annoyed in the beginning because I dislike flip flopping along a time line. I think it is probably harder in audio book format, because I have a hard time remembering what was happening when. Happily, the flash back and flash forward eventually met in the middle. 
 My second complaint is that the back cover blurb talked about something that happened halfway through the book, and another issue that came up only in the final chapters! It colored what I read before it and, I think, truly took something away from my reading experience. Shame on you blurb writer! 
 The things I enjoyed about the book are numerous. The non-mystery topics were painful, but they wove in and around each other so well that it never felt overwhelming. I didn't feel like everyone was hitting bottom at the same time, and that kept the book from being overwhelming. 
 The character development was incredibly good. I will say I predicted (view spoiler)[ Clare's pregnancy (hide spoiler)] pretty early on in the book, but that didn't bother me. 
 Other things I liked: (view spoiler)[ Clare and Russ' real wedding, Will's storyline, how Clare's addiction wasn't prettied up because it was Clare, Flynn & Hadley's storyline continues to break my heart but I keep hoping. (hide spoiler)]
