Starling House

I don't remember the exact page count, but Opal (the main character l, I think that's her name) was grating on my nerves. She was just rude and jealous all the time. If it was occasionally, I would ignore it. But any time I got comfortable, she complained about something that just as much out of said characters control as her life circumstances. 

My breaking point was when she was talking about the family that her brother went to stay with when she came home late. They seemed to comfortable, my bet would be middle class. The mom is a county clerk and the dad puts up roofs. That's my reasoning. And she hates them because they're better off than her? They're letting her brother stay the night. Their son is his friend, so I'd assume they at least like her and her brother. And she hates them? I'm sorry but I'm done.
