Four Directions Blog

I liked this part of the book considerably more than Rice Husband, simply because it made more sense. I found this chapter interesting because it also showed another daughter taking their mother’s feelings into account. Although Waverly is a bit showy and flashy, it seemed like she was really hoping for her mother to accept her and Rich’s relationship with each other. I was also surprised that she went back to continuing her story about her, chess and Lindo’s relationship. I thought it was so interesting that her mother’s actions changed entirely after Waverly announced to her that she was returning to chess. I found it even more surprising that Waverly realized how wrong she was about her thoughts about her mother. Especially when her mother understood where she was coming, that was pretty cool. I thought this chapter made Waverly appear very vulnerable, because she seemed like a polar opposite of that, because of how bossy she has acted throughout the book with her sisters, mothers and daughters. I think the main thing I am curious about now is what her mother are going to do next if she decides to go on the honeymoon with her.
