review 1: This was okay. Not quite what i was hoping for from one of my favorite authors. It was a quick read with nothing really unpredictable in the plot line, and I felt like some things weren't wrapped up well. But the characters were nicely done, and the premise was a fresh take on family, stress, and life. This was still a pretty good book, and has definitely given me some food for thought (like most of her books do:), but it isn't one of my favorites from Melody Carlson.
review 2: Sixteen-year-old Aster wishes she could have a life just any other girl. However, as the main caretaker for her mentally-disabled sister Lily, Aster's life is anything but normal. Aster is desperate to get some freedom, but her older sister is no help, her mother works long hours, an... mored her father hasn't been part of the picture for years. When cool, good-looking Owen comes along--and actually doesn't seem too freaked out at Aster's situation--Aster thinks he may be her ticked to normality. However, Aster's Christian beliefs and Owen's reputation might be incompatible.This book is a clean-read, and Aster's struggle to care for her sister but also have some independence will evoke sympathy from readers. less
