"together, you can beat anything"a very sweet story of friendship, love and the ties that go deeper and stronger than blood.But it's also a story about about abuse and alcoholism and how that can tear apart and destroy a family.I loved the 3 different viewpoints. Hearing the story told from Alana, Adin and Chris' POV was a great switch and made the story flow easily. The different views added a deeper meeting to the story and wasn't confusing at all.Even the addition of Spanish language added a lyrical beauty to the writing and story that I also enjoyed (although I was glad to see my many Spanish language classes and my travels helped me to not entirely rely on the translation glossary in the back! But it was so nice to have it there, just in case!)it was easy to love these characters and to enjoy their story. There were moments when it was heartbreaking to still read, but the story is well worth it.
