Helpful Score: 1


Never really got "into" this book. Only finished it because I rarely give up on a book. Cecelia is a 13 YO who runs into some trouble with her NYC classmates because she divulged one of their secrets to keep them from harm. Her free-style parents send her to her grandmother's in a small town to go to school. Astrid, grandmother, is a widow who is emotionally distant from her three grown children and now reassessing her parenting and her lifestyle. Strange, self centered characters. However, interesting character development of Cecelia and the angsts of a young teenager and all that's involved in growing up in recent times.
