Rosamond Du Jardin scores big with this one. Marcy is one of my favorite of her characters. We get to empathize as Marcy misses her boyfriend Steve who goes off to college. Then, when things in her family change, Marcy works to let go of her blues and take more responsibility. We are taken along as Marcy endures some difficult circumstances. She begins to explore personal issues, and begins to recognize that people and things may not be what they seem on the surface. By the end of the book, Marcy has matured into an intelligent, generous, and kind young woman. You will wish that she were here to be your friend!
