I feel as if I should get to the issue of Turtle. No, not the guy from Entourage. I am talking about the little Native American (yes, I am going to be politically correct) baby that is just given to Taylor. That seems odd, I am not sure how often that happens. So I Googled it. I was not exactly sure what to Google, because I am not sure on how to word it... Woman gives other woman baby, is this frequently happening in America? That search did me no good. But, this one did. I wondered how single parents, like Taylor would take care of a baby. Also, another single mother. Lou Ann! How do you not love her? She is adorable!!!! She definitely has birdie- with- a- broken- wing syndrome. Plus, I am falling right into the trap. She is incredibly insecure and wants a family, not the one she was given, Ivy and Grandmother. Ugh, they are annoying. Oh and Angel, his name is ironic to the story. I hate him. He is gross and I am glad he is gone.
I do have one question. Whenever the book speaks about Lou Ann (well at least in the beginning) it was third person narration. Then all of a sudden they used 'my'. I am not gunna lie that threw me wayy off.
The down point. Around page 105 the book got dull again. I am not exactly sure why but it did. I still have to finish this book, but as for now I am going to hang out with another baby (baby cousin).

Well, to say one hates it is a bit far. The book, in my opinion (and seeing as this is the communist inter-web my opinion is law), the book has a calm, understated charm to it. However, I do agree that the book began to get dull. It really just fell into a narrative of events that have been presented before. Lou Ann is a character to feel bad for, and I do agree that Angel is , for lack of a better word, a dick. The characters in this book are lovable (and hatable), but I guess classic novels of pain and turmoil have spoiled Americans so much that we are now categorizing the experiences of others into amount of pain they endure. So, to sum everything up, I disagree that the book was horrible, but do agree that it did get dull...
