Title: Possibly a book that is too good
Review: To say I loved this book may be misleading. In many ways, I felt manipulated by it. The first half of the book illustrates an off-the-wall, although not entirely disfunctional, family. By the end of that half, I had grown to care for each of the children. It isn't until the second half that the reader learns the awful secrets of the family and, because the characters are so powerfully drawn, is deeply affected by each character's childhood.
