    As for her age, page 4, third paragraph begins

    "I am twelve on this mid-December afternoon (though I am thirty now),"

    Nicky- I loved Nicky. I thought she was a really strong character. I think she had charater in the book, which made it really interesting.

    Charlotte-I liked Charlotte from the moment she showed up at the door . I’m not sure why I felt so attached to her, I guess it was because she was so vulnerable and down, and I felt bad for her.

    Robert (Nicky's Dad)I didn’t really like Robert from the beginning. I didn’t like how he handled things. I thought that he wasn’t a very interesting character in the story. He was dull.

    I loved Nicky the best. I thought Robert was very selfish and couldn't really relate to him. I know he lost his wife and child and I should give him a break.

    I liked the larger print on the book for my 40+ eyes too. It was a quick entertaining read.

    I think the ending was exactly right for that book. We aren't supposed to know what happened because it doesn't really matter.. for whatever reason that part of Nicky's life matters at the time the book is written and I think if we knew what happened beyond that it would change the way we felt about the entire situation. Imagine how different you would feel if you knew the baby got back to Charlotte.. would you hate her? Love her more? I think it's a good ending because it leaves you asking the same questions that Nicky has to ask herself at the end of the book.

    I pretty much agree with you. I thought it was appropriate, and, I don't know that I would want to know a whole lot more about what happened.
