Found it difficult to get into this book in the beginning because it took me awhile to sort out the characters. Different individuals discuss their lives, feelings, emotions and philosophy of life. However, I grew to really like Renee Michel, the concierge, and Paloma Josse, the highly intelligent 12-year-old who becomes her friend. Best of all for me was Paloma's last statement: "...for you (Renee), I'll be searching for those moments of always within never. Beauty, in this world."
