I loved America from the start, I thought she was a girl I could relate to and I liked her interaction with her family. Sometimes I wish I was more a strong female character like her because if there was a selection where I grew up I'd totally be like, "You mean I get to be a princess?? I'M TOTALLY ENTERING!" I did not like Aspen from the start sad to say, he was too romantic for a guy to be real for me. I was kinda relieved when he broke up with America because she seemed to be destined for greater things than Aspen and he was kinda weighing her down. I agree with you that her mom is hard to like, but I understand where she is coming from. She just wanted better for her children just like any parent. It has to be hard in a society where it is dictated by castes and not how hard you work.
