Natalie is a charismatic character. Her concern for those around her is admirable.

Natalie has been a great character throughout the book. Though some changes took place she was still likable in all forms.

I think Natalie's childhood shaped her character as it developed in the story and the only thing that surprised me was that she was still having an affair with Mr. Glover at the end of the book and that his wife knew and was okay with it.

Right? And I wanted her to be happy, so last night, I tried hard to believe it. I still don't, though, not down deep.
I thought the book was great, though, one of the best I've read on this forum.
I agree that it wrapped up neatly. That's why I think Libby should have fallen in with Alex. I figured Alex's sorry job of fixing the bridge would come undone as Alex shoved the cow and the two of them would go out together. Libby would be the unfortunate cost of her affair. Of course, there were the cost of Teagle and Alex finding out about her secrets. Yet, with both of them dying, none of the consequences feel real. Each is too brief.

Natalie was in a tough spot with her stepfather Alex. She was an admirable character in the sense that she was trying to protect the people she loved while looking for truths of her own. Throughout her experiences, she became a strong woman but I have to say, I had a love/hate relationship with her. I thought the book was great and gave it a 4 out of 4 . There were so many things going on with this family and so much for every one to try to overcome.

Natalie was forced to grow up quickly . She learned to deal with the hand she was dealt. Although, Unfair and upsetting , she made choices that are hard for a female her age. The falling in love part I did not like but some people will look at it as the twist and captivating part to the story
