Helpful Score: 1

I am a big fan of Hoffman. I really enjoyed this one as well. Her characters are well-developed and Hoffman has a way of capturing sadness and isolation like few other authors can. My one issue is with the ending. (Without going into detail for those of you who have not read the book), I was disappointed at how she matures the sisters. I had hoped she would bring around some of the key issues identified at the beginning to form closure and that didn't happen. There were also some plots that she brings closure to that are a little too neat, in my opinion. Finally, I was surprised at her bringing around drug use as it was very reminiscent of "Property Of". Overall, the book is very good but it is not her best, in my opinion.
