This books is about choices, being honest with ourselves, and how some relationships are doomed before they start or accelerate to the next level. If you can't tell your significant other about a major decision that has long lasting consequences, you should probably hit the brakes on that relationship stat. The heroine, for all her honorable intentions, sets things in motion with a very dramatic public end.I don't know how Latrivia does it. She managed to weave an enjoyable unputable down story that touched on things we consider important in relationships: race, socio-economic status, etc, versus considering whether or not our VALUES match up. Not just moral values, but our thoughts and expectations about work/ gender roles/ and so on. All of these are summed up as "what do i honestly want?". The heroine is faced with this question at at least 3 significant junctures in her life and how she answers determines how her life develops for the next huge chunks of her life, in some cases 10 years.
