I didn't even think about this as I was reading. I thought he had suffered and I think that his shining helped him in his recovery, though it was what led him to drink in the first place. Hmmm ....<br /><br />Can't wait to read what you think about the ending!!Tif Sweeneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06015299390676538748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6309803128000518121.post-4459832879925949262013-10-18T11:27:35.113-04:002013-10-18T11:27:35.113-04:00Yes, especially her dad...he seems to ignore the f...Yes, especially her dad...he seems to ignore the fact that she ever had any to begin with. I think Lucy knew that some of Abra's abilities stuck around since with Moma and some of the other women in her family, Lucy was more familiar with Abra's special powers. I'd guess Abra didn't want even her best friend to know what she could do because if it inevitably got out to others (and I'm sure it would have) she would be harassed and nagged both for good and bad reasonsAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09866342436745173619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6309803128000518121.post-30980718023805243122013-10-18T11:24:10.813-04:002013-10-18T11:24:10.813-04:00I was so impressed by King's development of Ab...I was so impressed by King's development of Abra. No matter what she was in the midst of doing or discussing, you never forgot that she was just a young girl at the heart of it all.

It's surprising she's been able to keep her shining mostly a secret, though it probably helps that they WANTED to believe her powers had gone away.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6309803128000518121.post-73842323894526871722013-10-17T19:13:39.293-04:002013-10-17T19:13:39.293-04:00I like your assessment of Abra; she was such a wel...I like your assessment of Abra; she was such a well drawn character - so sweet too.(Diane) Bibliophile By the Seahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10519875632878992728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6309803128000518121.post-36619852467888476732013-10-17T17:50:51.144-04:002013-10-17T17:50:51.144-04:00I am in the final pages but I've lost steam.
