    			  So sad.  Every character I felt sorry for including the town.  It was a good read mainly for the excellent writing and character development.  Like I said it is a good read if you are in a very good mood and don't mind comming down a notch but if you are already down it's going to be rough to finish; which is why I will have to finish the last quarter of the book.
