@hellohannah2 I finished chapter 6. I love watching Evie's awakening, her blossoming into womanhood, and her discovery of who she is. The walls she's been living behind are tumbling down and her eyes are beginning to open to the kaleidoscope of possibilities and opportunities before her and within her. Her environment and her friendship with Claire and Kelly has kept her sheltered. Jen and Jude have broken the spell. In his way Liam is a male version of herself, innocent and unaware. He still hasn't had his moment of clarity and discovery.

I can relate to Jude and your story of tourists coming to Ireland. I am an American girl, born and bred, but with some degree of Irish blood. I don't know how much, but my family has ties to Ireland. We also have English, German, and Native American (Cherokee) blood. You could say family reunions would be...interesting and lively.? I've come to look at it like my surrogate sister does, my ancestors were able to look beyond the animosity and hatred and find love. I may have been born here in America, I still live here, but I don't want to spend the rest of my life here, or to die here. I have long felt like an outsider. There is a wider world that I want to experience and I know somewhere out there is a place where I fit in. In that way I feel a sisterly bond with Evie's character. She's waking up to the possibilities and searching for where and how she fits in.
