Review
"Poignant, well observed and wonderfully written." Closer Magazine"
"This well-observed tale of family life is told with warmth and sprinkled with a dash of humor." Candis"
"Heartbreaking . . . a very human story about the complications arising from keeping secrets in family life." Image Magazine"
"A serious and mature read that puts the spotlight on the issues of family acceptance and loyalty." Chicklit Club"
"Boyd's tenderly emotional novel examines the fragility and resilience of familial bonds. Swinging between waves of tension and hard-won harmony, Boyd deftly navigates the tricky subject matter of adoption, social mores, and delayed redemption. Annie Delancey is a believable, likable heroine, and fans of Joanna Trollope and Liane Moriarty will adore the twisting, turning Tangled Lives." "Booklist""
