I really enjoyed the way the author brought this story to life, with alternating first-person narratives by a variety of "people" who were friends or acquaintances of the Saraf family.
From Good Reads:
Like a literary game of ping-pong, Good People compels the reader to reconsider what might have happened even on the previous page. Told through a kaleidoscope of perspectives, it is a riveting, provocative, and haunting story of family - sisters, brothers, mothers, fathers, and the communities that claim us as family in difficult times.
Perhaps the book was just a little bit too long; toward the end when I realized what was going to happen, I thought that the author may have wrapped it up a little sooner. But I was never bored reading this and at times, it was a real page-turner, as the reader waited to find out what was going on. And learning the story through accounts told by a varied group of observers, many with such different opinions and perspectives.
