1. Millie
I loved her! And I was so so happy she knew that Jack was bad! Of course she knew he was bad since he was the one who made her fall. But still though! It warmed my heart that Millie wanted to help Grace and that she never forgot what a bad man he was even though Grace thought she might had. And the fact that Millie had a plan to help her by pretending to struggle with her sleep so she would get enough sleeping pills to give to Grace.
It's sad that some people still thinks that people with down syndrome are dumb and can't do anything. They can do a lot of things! Look at the model with down syndrome! She's absolutely gorgeous and her determination and hard work to get where she is now is just amazing! I like that more and more people hire them knowing that they will do they job as great as other people will. When I see a person with down syndrome, I smile because their smile makes me happy and they just make my day.
Anyway, Millie. I like the chemistry between her and Grace. The way they looked after each other and help each other through this mess one way or another. And that Millie wanted to make sure that Grace knew she hadn't forgotten about Jack by saying she didn't like George Clooney. When I found out the reason she said that, it warmed my heart.
2. Esther
For every question she asked, the more I hoped she started to understand what was actually going on in that house. And that ending though! Esther finally figured out that something was wrong and wanted to lie for Grace. I pretty much got goosebumps when I read that last line and couldn't stop thinking about it when I was done reading. I sat there like, :O :O She figured it out!!! She figured it out and wanted to help Grace!!!!! And I started to think that it was because of the colour of the room when Millie said that she loved yellow and not red and Esther had heard that Jack was found in a red room. I was just so so happy that Grace have Esther on her side and that she's not alone anymore. Of course, she got Millie too who knows, but this is another person. Someone who wasn't really fooled by the whole perfect marriage stuff.
Bah... I have a feeling that there was something more I wanted to write about, but can't remember it now. But this was at least some of the things I just had to write down.
If you have read this book, what did you think?
I havent read the full book but what happens between grace and jack?
ReplyDeleteHello! Sorry for the late reply as I've been away from this blog for a while.
DeleteTbh, I can't remember much of what happened and you've probably finished it by now I guess. But If you haven't... why not? I can say that justice happened and Grace will never be haunted by Jack, ever again. Maybe in her dreams (or..nightmare more like), but she will be ok :)
