Book Response Proof Sheet
Chrissy always thought of her father as the greatest superhero on Earth. Unfortunately she hadn't seen him for the last three years and since her mother refused to discuss anything about his disappearance Chrissy pretty much refused any contact with her mother. Not knowing what to do, Chrissy's mother sends her out to the country to live with her grandmother, father's mother, hoping that she'll open up and start living normally. At first Chrissy hated the idea of having to go live away from New York where she'd grown up, but later on she took it as an opportunity to further explore her father's mysterious disappearance. However, after living at grandma's for a few days she realized that grandma wasn't gonna be of any more help than her mom was. Therefore Chrissy decided to slowly explore the house and search for any clues to her destination. While living out in the country slowly she started to like the surroundings and even managed to meet a few friends, including a neighborhood guy she developed feelings for. She found letters and pictures that lead her to believe that her father was still alive but she never had any proof. Finally one d

Chrissy's grandma is a typical old-fashioned caring woman. She guides Chrissy through steps to becoming a responsible young girl who will make her life out to be better than her father's. She creates rules for Chrissy to follow in the house and doesn't ease up after a few complaints from her granddaughter. She always tried to do what she thought would hurt Chrissy the least but, in my opinion, she wasn't right to keep the secret about Chrissy's dad for that long from Chrissy. Even though grandma was in her retiring years, she helped out others and tried to get as much work done as she could handle. She went to church and donated as much as possible to he charity fund. Her awesome personality helped Chrissy open up and get back to normal life.
I thought the book was interesting because it kept me in suspense until the end. I loved the way the author described the surrounding out in the country it made me relate and relive some memories I had while living in the same type of environment. This wasn't the greatest book I've ever read but it was one of the good ones.
