This is the story of the Padavano family, but focused on the four inseparable sisters and the man one of them chooses to marry. We learn about their childhoods, their dreams, and how their lives might differ from the plans they had set for themselves. It's ultimately about the family dynamics that come from grief, mental illness, disappointment, trauma, and controversial romantic choices. I connected deeply with some of these characters, so that certainly influences how strongly this story affected me. It made me ugly cry many times. It was heartbreaking, hopeful, and deeply moving. If you liked Little Women, there's a good chance you'll enjoy this story. It has a strong chance of being my favorite 2023 release, but I guess we'll see by the end of this year!
