Her motto is if you don't own anything, they can't take it away from you. She certainly isn't there to find a sister and a home. Dessa is only there to make sure her younger half brother is being properly cared for. But Hope and Dessa are like oil and water. They share a bathroom, go to the same school, and Hope is supposed to stick by her and befriend her. This is first time her parents' have taken in a foster kid the same age as her.
Dessa's presence in her house is hard on Hope for different reasons.
It's often hard on her because she wants to care for and protect those kids, but then they always have to leave. Hope is used to the revolving door of foster kids that go through her family's home.
Davis is a wonderful book about life, family, friendship with two very different perspectives on both. Originally posted here at Random Musings of a Bibliophile.
