Erin I just reread this at age 39 after first reading it at age 15 for school. I definitely didn't get as much out of it upon my first reading just due to my stage of life. Now I'm the age of the daughters in the book and I get that part of it at least. I know I enjoyed it ok the first time I read it but this second reading showed me that it's really a masterpiece. Even younger than 13, I would have understood even less and some things would've gone over my head completely.
