I find myself struggling to read the earlier part of the book because the child narrator leaves out a lot of details that. Sometimes the child narrator sounds a bit wiser than her age. The ending is quite punchy though.

"E was one of those people whose very presence gives others permission to act naturally. The sort of person who doesn't expect you to arrive on time or, when you do arrive at last, to say something important. The sort of person who distrusts order and who, consequently, brings a little bit of chaos with him wherever he goes."
