A pretty fast read, but a nice take on both the relationship between sisters and the aching way that growing up can take away the things that made your childhood so magical. I also appreciated the portrayal of an exhausted sort of neglect on the part of a parent - a somewhat nuanced portrayal of poor parenting which might be relatable to readers. Each sister's narrative was well-defined and the characters sympathetic and well-rounded, but between the three of them I'm not sure that there was a ton of depth to the problems or solutions. I'm also so-so on how engaging the background "mystery" was, but overall a sweet and well-written family story.

(Baffled, btw, that this is coming out in July rather than around Christmas based on both the temporal setting of the story and the theme/tone, but publishers gonna publish I guess?)

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the eARC.
