Discuss the characters here


Jana (janagallagher) | 63 comments I was most intrigued by the boys in the story. How much they cared for the girls. I enjoyed the story from their POV. Good, interesting read.

The few page description of how women young and old respond to Trip is kinda hilarious!


Meghan | 118 comments I felt like so much focus was on Lux throughout the mid-end of the story, that I didn't feel like I got to know Therese, Mary or Bonnie much (or Cecilia, for obvious reason). I'm wondering if it was intentionally written like this, to touch on the idea of the sisters as an entity vs individuals?


Stephanie Dique | 49 comments I felt I knew the characters so well by the objects they possessed in their house, yet not at all by their actual characteristics. It’s a really weird feeling actually.

I totally get that! In fact, I have been working on my review and there is something along those lines I have been thinking of including.
