Main+Character

Main Character-Discuss what he/she is trying to achieve and how and why he/she is succeeding or failing.  Hey Mary, it's Emily, in first period. I would have to say that Tilly is most likely the main character. At least so far in the story. During the first chapter, the setting was more in the future, but Tilly lived back when President Lincoln was inaugur ated. Tilly's younger sister, Cass, apparently sees visions of ghosts, most from the civil war. Tilly lives with her mother, brother, and sister. they recently got a new guest, Delaphine, who Tilly thinks is crazy.

Hey! It's Mary, from 5th period. Yes, I agree that Tilly is probably the main character so far. I was kind of confused in the beginning when it was about the boy Howard, then it changed to the story about Tilly. But then I figured out that Tilly was the name of Haward's grandmother. So, I guess the story is abut Tilly when she was growing up. I wonder if Cass's visions of the ghosts will come in later in the story.

 Hello, again! I thought the transition between Howard and Tilly confusing, too. I was wondering if they are going to even mention Howard again in the story.

Hey! I think that they will probably bring up Howard and his story at the end, because I don't think they would have put the beginning part in about him unless it was to further explain the story of Tilly.

In the end, Howard's story was mentioned, but it was more from Tilly's point of view. If Tilly held her family together before the war, I wonder how hard it was after her parents died. Wasn't she only 15? She at least has Delphine, but Noah can't help much with one arm.

Yes, she was only 15. That would be very hard to take care of a family at only 15.
