Review: Full of raw emotion.

A very personal and realistic account of the issues raised and behaviour caused when marriages breakdown. Due to the style of writing I felt I was sat beside Brooklyn as she picked over the bones of her past, her guilt at the spiralling effect on friends and family of her decisions and supported her new partner through his "messy" divorce. Thought provoking, it shows there are no "winners" when relationships fail and hope can only spring from new relationships and the friendships that do stay strong. There was some humour and some interesting insights into the fallibility of all of us, when we feel hurt or wronged.Although it was about families falling apart, the importance of family came through very strongly.
