Bestselling author Karma Brown is back with a morally infused and emotionally riveting exploration of one woman's grief and guilt over an unexpectedyet avoidabletragedy. Meg Pepper has a fulfilling career as a real esate agent, a hardworking husband on the verge of starting his own medical practice and a surprisingly good-natured teenage daughter. Most days Meg is able to keep it all together thanks to an endless stream of alerts on her phone, andmore or lessseamlessly glide through life. After school pickup one day, Meg and her daughter, Audrey, are driving home when they see Jack, the twin brother of Audrey's boyfriend, up ahead. Seeing a group of boys on the other side of the road, Meg stops her car to wave him across the streetjust as an SUV comes hurtling down the road and slams into Jack. The drivera high-school teacher in the process of textingdid not see Jack crossing the road. Meg can't help but blame herself for this horrific accident. Guilt stricken and desperate with grief, Meg throws herself into helping Jack's family as he rehabs from his injuries. But the more she tries to absolve herself of what she feels responsible for, the more she alienates her own family. The ripple effects that follow tear at the ties that bind her to those she loves the most, causing her to risk losing everything she holds dear to her heart. "

Mehso-so

I think this only a So-So for me because I found it a bit long winded at times. I can understand and have empathy for the amount a guilt Meg felt but I did spend parts of the book screaming (in my head) about the choices she was making. I think this kind of investment in the characters is a sign of good writing.

Solid 4 Stars. I wish the end was a little clearer as far as did things work out or not, I don‘t like being left to wonder. But overall, a very good, if somewhat emotional and sad, book and how our actions can have severe impacts even when we think we‘re doing the right thing. And then sometimes knowing we‘re doing the wrong thing and yet somehow not be able to stop ourselves.

Waiting in my happy place for my husband to pick me up for breakfast 😍

Lola I just learned that if you have a membership card, you can get a one free beverage in the café per month ? 7y
Bostonmomx2 @Lola I gave up my@membership a long time ago, it just wasn‘t worth it for me. I do get a buy one get one free cookie coupon now tho when I buy a drink 😂 7y
Lola @Bostonmomx2 I only kept it going because my kids‘ grade school did an annual book fair there. Now that they are both in hs, I don‘t use the membership much these days but if I actually go in monthly for the free drink, the membership will pay for itself and that will be my justification for keeping it 🙃 7y
Bostonmomx2 @lola well shoot, that might convince me lol 7y
Lola @Bostonmomx2 Litsy....the great book lover enabler 😂 7y

Kids are off to school. I could get used to this! LOL. I'm about 50 pages in and so far I'm enjoying it. Something about her writing style irks me but the story line is good so far.

Reviewsbylola I love when my kids are at school. 😂 Gives me time to unwind a bit. 7y
Maddycht @Reviewsbylola absolutely! I really should be cleaning or something but nah lol 7y

I don't know why it's taken me so long to read a book by Karma Brown. This book was really amazing.

Karma likes to present her characters with unexpected pivotal moments, moments that will change their lives forever, and explore their reactions and how they forge through and survive. She did a stellar job with this book and this exploration. I felt the whole thing down to my core. Highly recommend! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️
