Kelley Robertson Agreed. A middle-schooler dyes and drastically cuts her hair and it’s not noticed. Also, I thought what happened to Elliott’s building was a big loose end that deserved tying up since it was a chunk of the book. Also, I really expected the Barbara storyline to be more artfully worked in. It was as if the author forgot to finish part of the book.

Kate None of the plots came together in a meaningful way for me.
It felt like what they call "parallel play" in a preschool classroom.
I kept waiting for each individual storyline to be part of a "whole," but it never happened. So disappointing.

Elisabeth I'm in total agreement with you. I really couldn't work out which was the dream scene - did Nicky leave the directors house or did he stay? And what mother tells her child they will work it out when they call scared???
I know why Porter didn't confide in her mother, look at her advice to Elliott when he was a young teenager.
Astrid was an odd character - she starts eccentric and then goes downhill.
The book was far from good, the characters and story line were not developed well... I gave it a 2 star rating, and that was only because I did finish it.
