I think it would have improved it she just gave it an ending where the characters found themselves at last. <br /><br />Burial Rites was a very sad book but was quite well-written. It worked well to make us fell the life in Northern Iceland.

Disappearing Earth was multi-faceted and a book I kept thinking about long after I'd finished it. Loved Virgil Wander, but hated The Great Alone. I don't think Kristin Hannah is a very good writer. Another that I would add to the list is Snow Child.
