I liked Sara too. She had spunk. She seemed so easy-going and never complained.Josephe-Anne wrote: ↑01 Mar 2020, 05:53 Sarah is my favorite character in the story because she is a tenacious older woman who serves as a maternal influence for Hillary and a grandmother for Claire.

It's interesting to hear you say that. For me, Hillary was my least favorite part of the book. I found her to be obsessive and paranoid. I thought she was obsessed with her heritage, obsessed with being abandoned, obsessed with being a good mother, and constantly paranoid something bad would happen. Also, for someone so obsessed with being a good mother, I thought she made some dumb decisions. Like staying in Ireland, for example. If she really wanted Claire to be safe she should have taken her home.
I think differing opinions are what makes reading interesting, though. It would be boring if everyone had the same opinion.

I felt her behavior was erratic as she dealt with her own “mother” issues. One minute overly protective and the next not so much, but it seemed realistic for a woman who was looking for “family”. I absolutely did not agree with all the decisions she made, but she seemed the most “real” to me out of them all.
