*WARNING* This review may or may not contain spoilers. I say that because I was recently left a comment by another reader saying I should have warned her there were spoilers in my review (I reread that review several times and saw none to my knowledge but hey, different strokes for different folks I guess!). So just to cover all the bases, my review may (or may not) contain comments that some find to be an insight into the reviewed book before it is read! Now... on to the review!I have never wished for a character to die so badly in a novel as I do the mother in this one... and my usual reading material includes stuff about serial killers so that's saying a lot. What a mean, spiteful, awful woman she was. I kept praying each time I started a new chapter that she would be trampled by a horse or her husband would push her out a window.This book was filled with rich characters and a fascinating story line. However, as I got closer to the end I cared less about the other sisters and was more interested in how Grace would choose to live out her life after all the stress and drama of the household was taken care of.*Definite spoiler below... well, maybe not. I'll try to word play around it haha!*I really wanted to read more about how Grace's life with (male character) turned out. I was excited that she was finally able to find some happiness and then BAM the book was over. She went through a lot in this book and I would like to have delved more into her life away from the craziness.
