There is so much that was good about FIGHTING FOR US starting with seeing what effect 7 years of prison had on a man like Asher. The writing on this was intelligent and poignant.
It also provided the parallel story of the trauma his family -not only Grace - went through from his brothers to even young Eli next door. It was always lingering in the background that what happened to Asher was unfair, but it became clear over and over that making things fair wasn’t going to happen.
I really felt for these characters, a testament to the quality of the writing. The last chapter leads into the next book, Evan’s story. I think this is one of the brothers I am most interested in next. He’s been so mysterious that there has to be an interesting story there.
