5/5
God, Leigh never really felt like a 12 year old, now did she? She felt so mature lots of times, and this story was really able to give so much more than what we learned about her in the other books. BTW loved that they actually went more into depth with the portrait doll, I felt like in the other books it was forgotten, but also it had genitals but Leigh's in this book didn't...
As you can see lots of things just didn't seem right...
So Chester, he's the dad, right? We learn this before Jillian's wedding when Jana comes to visit, but don't hear too much about it until Chester Goodwin comes in the picture for one scene, explaining to Leigh that her father can't see her. Is this her father? On VC's official page is says it is, so why isn't this more acknowledged, I suppose. I kinda wish Jillian had maybe talked more about her pregnancy. Another thing, when she get pregnant? She supposed to be about 40, so minus 12 years is 28, so she got pregnant and married at 28? That just doesn't feel right with the whole story, you know?
Another thing, I felt like they left out that iconic part in the last book where Tony told Annie (thinking she was Leigh) "you can call me Daddy", like where is that? I feel like when you suggest these things and quotes in the other books, you should add them within the actual story of Leigh, wouldn't that make sense?
And Luke, I do and don't believe this Luke. Isn't he the guy who slept with Sarah while Leigh was still alive and pregnant? They also made him too boyish, but he was the type of guy to leave Kitty pregnant and alone, not take in a pregnant 13 year old with a soft smile. And also him naming Heaven, like no! Leigh was supposed to name her and it wouldn't make sense for him to automatically love the baby, since he refused to show any love when Heaven was growing up (if we are assuming that he hated her for her father, as it had been suggested in the other books).
Also Annie's parts in this were stupid, sorry but had to be said. It wouldn't make sense that Jillian had this diary especially after Leigh ran away. Like did Leigh take it and it was sent back, nope because how would it be sent back?? Also it wouldn't have made sense if Tony knew about Heaven being his daughter because if all remember, he was the one to set up Troy and Heaven after. Did he think there was another daughter?
However, I really did like this book. It's interesting and horrifying. But keeping the discussions above in mind, this book isn't perfect but still has many elements to Leigh's story that are very important to the overall series.
