I found this book disturbing but yet wonderful. It's a sad book that's for sure and it sure had me thinking about death a lot and how these siblings found out from a fortune teller I guess you could call her when their deaths would be and how obsessed they were or at least 3 of them were. Their mother Gertie never knew about this and then soon after her husband dies and from then on their lives change.
I liked how every 100 pages or more it switched to another sibling so you knew what there lives were like. They all lived different lives in different places. Some parts of their lives were predictable and some I was surprised of how things turned out. This book will stick in my mind for a long time.
Just a personal side note: someone left this in our Little Free Library and I'm glad she did since I wanted to read this since it came out.
