It shows how jealousy can hurt someone and words can cut to the core. The book really does a excellent job of talking about friendship and how easily someone can betray you. It surprised me when he belittled her in front of his friends. I liked Calder at times an other times I thought that he should have taken up for Susan more. Susan is really just a shy girl who lacks self confidence but she has so much to offer with her compassion and love.Ĭalder and Susan are next door neighbors and naturally have a deep bond for each other. I cried when I read how mean the girls were to her and wanted to tell them to stop it. When I was growing up, I was bullied in junior high and high school. Some kids at school make fun of her and I could relate to her immediately. She hasn't had an easy life, but she never complains. I loved how independent she is and how dedicated she is to caring for her invalid dad. There is something about Susan that draws you in to her character and goes deep into your soul. I have discovered a new author to me and this story is written with such deep emotions I couldn't put it down.
