Really enjoyed it. I only didn't like the ending. And I wish the relationship between Carley and Mr Murphy had been developed more. The writing was pretty good other than the way everyone talked. It just felt odd sometimes

I really enjoined this book! It is definitely one of my favorites I’ve read this year! ( thats saying a lot to me bc i read cinder, but Cinder still my favorite ) The Emotions were everywhere and i soaked it up like a sponge! More drama the better. I really did cry a little when Carly remembered what happened that night with her mother and Dennis. The ending made me wish there was a little epilogue though.
For all the kids who don't understand The Giving Tree. I'm sure they can find more than one thing in common with Carley.

This was a really quick read. I enjoyed it pretty well, but man that ending! It pretty much put me off ever even thinking about being a foster parent. How do you bring someone into your life like that and just have to let them go back to someone who hurt them? Ugh. Terrible!
