I loved the idea of this story.
As I was reading, I was reminded of a quote by Anton Chekhov..."Don't tell me the moon is shining; show me the glint of light on broken glass". I felt as if I were being told what to think and feel throughout this story. I think the author thought we wouldn't understand so she spelled everything out for us. I like when I can read a book and feel as if I'm in the story, a part of it.
