review 1: I don’t know why I didn’t like this book as much as I thought I would have. The plot is a good one: A girl keeps growing and growing, causing her to be ostracized from a very young age. Forced under a particular set of circumstances to move in and take care of one of her lifelong bullies is a tough pill to swallow, but she does it. Later on, this bully and others that turned their noses up at Truly, will need favors from her. Somewhere along the way, however, the story lost its magic for me. I kept reading on just hoping to finally get to the last page and be done with it. Could make for a good movie…
review 2: This story had so much potential, in another life, or maybe another draft... I couldn't really connect with the beginning stories about the histor
... morey of the town/families. By the time it was even a little relevant, I'd already forgotten because it was so weirdly placed. Or maybe because there's no way Truly knew it. I don't profess to be a master of fiction writing technique, but even I know you can't go around switching points of view paragraph by paragraph, line by line. Suuuuuper distracting. Mostly I just felt frustrated by the story, the writing, and the characters. :( less
