Often, it’s our family’s long-held secrets that shape our future. The Guest Book is a sweeping family saga tucked with diamonds and pebbles that enchant and irritate. Captivating and absorbing, this is not only a great read, but it may change the way you think of your own family stories. I basically moved into the family’s island home until I was finished, and then stayed around, in my imagination, for a few extra days.
