This book was a little hard to get into at first. But tells the story of Nikki Eaton and her life trying to get over the tragic death of her mother. How she gets over this death and realizes what is important in life. You get to see Nikki morph into a beautiful butterfly, who is still growing when you finish the book. Joyce Carol Oates did a tremendous story in this book and her characters are so alive and realistic. A wonderful read that will stay with you long after you've finished the book.
