Review: If You Must Know

 


* 1st book in a trilogy *

Amanda and Erin don't have the best relationship. Even though they're sisters, they couldn't be more different. Amanda resented the love their father showered on Erin. Erin never fit in with Amanda or their mother. 

But when push comes to shove, they start to be there for each other. Amanda's perfect life crumbles during the last month of her pregnancy. Both sisters start to take a look at the past to heal the wrongs. Trusting each other doesn't come naturally. Little by little, they start to understand past hurts. Hopefully they can come together to move forward.
My Thoughts: This family didn't function well together, especially after the death of their father. I admired the way they started talking again and looking out for each other. My heart hurt for both of the sisters and all the past pain they put each other through. I loved hearing about the Etsy shop ideas and the small business moments. I felt awful for Amanda and the choices she had to make in regards to her unborn child. She was very brave. I loved the dual narratives, hearing both Amanda and Erin's side of the story. Of course I loved learning more about Mo (Based on the author's dog). 

Cover Thoughts: Cute - makes me curious about the book
