We are not our parents and I don't think a ten year old child would understand what his father was doing and what he was helping his father with. It was really sad when he died, I really wanted him to survive. Although I also feel for Charlie murdering a person is not the solution. Stanley was living a life without hurting people so I think that him murdering Stanley was not justified. I don't know I hope he is found and charged. Also I hope Max gets killed in the next book.

The character development, especially regarding
The evolution of Holly Jackson's writing in this sequel impressed me, and the anticipation for the third book is palpable. While the ending was a bitter pill to swallow, it speaks to the author's ability to evoke deep emotions. A break from the intense feelings might be necessary, but the prospect of what the next installment holds is equally compelling.
