Right from the beginning I found Abel’s story more interesting than William’s and was tempted to just skip William’s chapters. I enjoyed seeing Abel grow with his challenges and not giving up but as the story progressed and became more and more political and about finances it got boring and I find it ridiculous that they hold a life-long grudge against each other. The ending took me by surprise but made the grudge even more pointless in my opinion, they should’ve just talked things out for their families’ sakes instead of making everyone’s lives miserable.
Graphic: Death, Suicide, War
Moderate: Alcoholism, Alcohol
