ONCE UPON A TIME, THERE WAS YOU (Elizabeth Berg) - November 19/15

I really enjoyed this one. It's basically a fractured family thing from the perspective of the mother, the father, and the daughter. Berg does a fantastic job of transforming each of the three characters into compelling figures, and I have to admit I was surprised by how gripping the kidnapping subplot was. I also appreciated that the book didn't end with the mother and father getting back together. ***1/2 out of ****
