Other than the townhouse style homes in TV I don't think any of them have an 'upstairs' and I was given the impression that she lived in a premier home. The other thing that bothered me was when the biker guy went to Disneyworld with his sister and her kids, he talked about how the kids were bugging him for cotton candy or snowcones...he finally gave the child some money and he bought a treat from someone dressed in a costume. Now I don't know about you, but I have been to Disney many, many times and never once did I hear about snowcones or cotton candy and I have never been served anything by anyone dressed as a character. This sounds like a carnival or fair. I don't think the writer has ever been to Disney. Other than these silly things, I thought the book was mind candy, and I did enjoy being able to identify the places that were mentioned. Right now I am looking for a really good mystery..any suggestions? I like stuff like Mary Higgens Clark.
When we used to take our sons to Disney, they always wanted Candy Floss, as we Brits call it. Disney sell it in plastic bags, and the girls and boys were in costume, but NOT character costumes.
Now reading Chip Bells 3rd book, Havana Daydreamin' and waiting for number 4 this atumn.
