The book is about a couple who are unable to conceive when suddenly the husband finds out he has a 10 year old son and his ex-girlfriend has died. With this discovery the wife learns secrets of her husband's past that she had no clue about.
Being infertile myself it was easy to put myself in the wife's shoes. She is thrown for a loop and goes somewhat off the deep end. I felt her reactions were very realistic. I won't give the ending away because I think its well worth the read. I did hope for an epilogue with more resolved though.

Hi, Steph!
I found your blog in an alert I created on google for my books--and it was so nice to see your kind words about One Small Thing. I do agree I leave the readers not knowing all there is to know, but in a way, I like a book where I think about what may or may not have happened after the story ended. Though it can be frustrating. I will give you that.
Thanks again for posting the kind thoughts.
Best,
Jessica Inclan
