This is an unassuming book. I was very surprised by this book. I was surprised at how much I liked it. I love books in which I can identify with and fall in love with characters. And this book did just that. I fell in love with both Katie's innocence and wisdom. In some ways, Katie was naive and innocent and in others she was wise beyond her years and more grown up becuase of the tragedies and grief she had experienced. She was so relateable.
The character I was most surprised with was Katie's dad. While I should have hated him, I couldn't. He was dealing with his own grief in his own way, though at Katie and Diane's expense. I should have hated him, but he was not a villan. I could relate to him as well.
For such a small book, it packed a powerful punch! :)
