I cried at the end of a book once. I'm too emotional.

I know exactly what you mean with the books. I never want to forget Amanda, Ruth and Imogene. I was gutted that Amanda didn't keep Imogene and that Imogene never found out that Amanda was her real mother. Maybe that's an idea for a fan fiction for the future?

Definitely. It's not soppy, just sad, in my opinion. I'm going to read more of her.

Blurb on the back
At the close of World War One, Amanda Starkey leaves the city, and travels to her family's farm in rural Wisconsin to recover from a traumatic love affair. Instead, she is caught up in a tragedy that will take her beloved sister's life, and leave Amanda to raise her neice Ruth. What happened that terrible night when Mattie died? Why does Ruth say she can remember drowning? For years the consequences of the tragedy reverberate; the truth, when it is revealed, is both dramatic and extraordinarily moving.
