Hallie’s life has been turned upside down. The trauma of her father’s death leads to having to sell their home, begining junior high at a new school, and adopting out her pets. Hallie is angry and withdrawn. One afternoon while looking for a hiding place, she goes to the forbidden attic room and peeks though a small hole in a boarded over window. She sees the living room of an apartment in the next building. Hallie becomes obsessed with watching the lives of the family through the spy hole.

This book left me hungry for more!! What happened when Zachary called her on Monday!? Does she visit? Does she ever meet Tiffany?? Does she ever tell Zachary about the spyhole! AGH TELL ME MORE!!!!
Somehow I found myself liking Zachary's character. Thinking he's a witch doctor! Hahahaha

Fun idea. Girl sees the condo across the way from a hole in her attic. She becomes involved in their lives.

Not among her best. Still think Gib Rides Home and the Below the Root trilogy win that prize.

Sooner or later every writer starts coasting on technique. Snyder was definitely at that stage when she wrote this one. We've seen it all before--the secret in the attic, the single parent and troubled child, the weird, smart little kid, even the old mansion. This one is all form and no content

While not the best of her books, its an interesting perspective on grief and children.
