In a town where nothing ever changes, suddenly everything does... Everyone knows everyone in the tiny town of Bourne, but the Mitchell triplets are especially beloved.

Oplysninger fra den engelske Almen Viden Redigér teksten, så den bliver dansk. "Sometimes it's important to remember things the way someone worked really hard for you to remember them," Apple says, "rather than the way they actually were." ...for I have learned that home is not just where you live. Home is also where you want and need and are meant to live. Home is also the people who are there with you, who are the people who will help you live, who are the people who will do the best they can, not just for themselves, but for you, their neighbors and friends, as well. ...sometimes you have to destroy--or destory--something in order to save it. | |

Oplysninger fra den engelske Almen Viden Redigér teksten, så den bliver dansk. For now, Monday turns off the backhoe's ignition. She and Mab pull me out of my seat. We are all three sliding down the side of the machine, scrambling onto the earth, all in a pile, a single, weeping, trembling organism. Since my chair is back at the plant, they prop me up with their bodies, and we watch together, we three, under the frozen stars, under the dark, until the night lightens and the sun comes up, as the lake becomes a stream and then a river again, as the dam becomes a weir and then a hole and then a bridge between one grassy shore and another, water flowing below again, between what we have rendered at last a fallen, slain, and desiccated chemical plant and our very own small town, our home, Bourne again, coming slowly back to life.

This is an interesting story of a small town hit hard by greed, lies, and the repercussions to the townspeople because of it - told from triplet teenage girls' POV.
The triplets have very different personalities, and they shine in this story. Great research, great depth to the characters, and a fulfilling story of hope, grief, choices, and the trust and love that builds a town... and a family.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me a copy of this great audiobook. ( )
