A kid's first existential horror. Has a wonderful plot for a book like this!
Michael's attitude towards his sister reminds me a lot of my relationship with my younger brother when I was a kid.
And with that in mind, regardless of how really mean Tara really was, it is sad what happened to her in the end.
