April is a complicated, flawed character and I love her. Abandoned by those who are supposed to love her, she’s left to fend for herself at a young age. I love that she didn’t allow herself to get stuck, but the flip side is that she pushed everyone away, which made me so sad. 

I was rooting for her.
She got the ending she deserved and I’m so glad she made it home.
 

I would love to hear her music.
