But, also Scarlett's mom isn't helping at all. Her mom, Marion, is a big alcoholic and doesn't pay much attention to Scarlett. She usually just leaves Scarlett home alone and doesn't really watch out for her.
At the funeral, when Scarlett is already unhappy, Michael's ex-girlfriend comes to the funeral balling her eyes out. She was sobbing and Scarlett, Michael's girlfriend, wasn't even shedding a tear. All of the attention was on Elizabeth. Everyone was caring for her and the only one that was there for Scarlett was Halley.
I am still not very far in this book, but I love it. The way the author describes the characters feelings is very good. But I am still left wondering after these few chapters if the girls' year will turn around for the better. I will have to continue to read to find out.
This book sounds really good! I would love to read it sometime. Do you like the personalities of the main characters? Is there anything you would change about the book if you could?
