The summary and premise drew me in, but the beginning seemed to jump all over the place. So many names were introduced, and were hard to keep track of. Since it's being told partially from the childrens' points of view, couldn't the parents be referred to as 'mom' and 'dad' instead of their first names? Perhaps it smooths out as it continues, but I found it hard to not feel a little lost, and it's only the first part of the book!
I wonder if the author will come back to "the seer" character at all? I would love to learn more about her, her history, to see how she fits in to the predictions that she gave the four Gold children in 1969.
If the book does smooth out, I'd be interested in continuing to read about this family.
