repeat dialogue and grammatical errors (0 more)

I honestly think this book has been the best in the series. I'll repeat my normal complaint that the dialogue repeating from book to book and numerous grammatical errors are rather irritating but the story progresses very well. Pretty fast paced compared to some of the others so far. Not as predictable, although some aspects I called pretty early on. Not to mention, quite a bit more relationship progress. I'm a little torn with how it ended up but excited to read on. I had no idea when I started this series that there were already 27 in the series but I'm hooked enough to continue on.

Beautiful family

Painfully Tragic and Beautifully Romantic

When I started Everything I Never Told You, I expected it to be a story of a family suffering a loss and finding the answers through old journals or realizations of their lost daughter.
Yes, the family learns things about her they did not know, but how I expected it to go down was WAY OFF.
We are able to grow with the kids, through poignant memories. We fall in love with both of the parents as they each reminisce. I felt the betrayal of the mistakes they made and the pure pride and joy as they grew as a family and as people.

As a turn of the century romance book fan, it ticks all the boxes. (0 more)

Now I can see a pattern with Dilly Court. The endings are abrupt. (0 more)

Another sweet one, another abrupt end

The endings of Dilly Court's books seem to just end with questions left unanswered. It can be left quite easily (as they have done, annoyingly) however, they have been left in a way they can also have a sequel written without much scrambling. I'm a romantic so these kind of books I love completely, it ticks the boxes I'm looking for and it also had a twist that left me considering not sleeping last night so I could finish it!
