Yes, the characters are the focal point. Personally, I would have liked a meatier plot.

The book is centred around the main characters. Full of errors and unprofessional published. Thanks for the review, it saves time.

I really love this review its honest. From reading i could point out that Ellen was some rich snobs, self centered. This review also give me the feeling that Ellen was a lonely person. :techie-studyinggray:

Lavender, thanks for the feedback and welcome to the forums. :) The author did a great job in showing that Ellen wasn't a nice person even when she was younger. It wasn't just that the character was a fussy old woman.

The caregiver story is very nice..
We all know that nowadays, there is so many people who work abroad far from their family and take good care of others abroad..
The story reflects on what is happening in reality. The story showed how hard it is to be a caregiver and how hard it is living alone.
