Interesting - Discuss something about the story that you find particularly interesting. It could be a character, an incident, something you are learning, or something you are feeling. Hey, it's Mary from 5th period. I noticed that the characters mentioned Tilly's dad a couple of times. And it also said that Noah, Tilly's brother is the only man in their house, so i wonder where their dad is?

My guess was that Tilly's father was fighting in the war. I might be wrong, though. What i found interesting was Cass's "visions". I want to find out if she's actually seeing these people, or if she's insane, or trying to get attention.

Yeah, I was thinking that he was probably in the war, but I wasn't sure. Cass's visions are very interesting. Hey Mary, it's Emily. One point i found interesting is how Delphine was so interested with Cass's visions. Also, I was wondering why Delphine spoke French so much? When she's exclaiming something, it's usually in French. She and Calinda were very excited when Tilly's mother gave them Jambalaya. In Louisiana, they eat food like that, and the population has many French speaking people, so my guess is they're originally from there, which would explain why Calinda is a servant of Delphine's.

It's Mary, It's good that Calinda and Cass are becoming good friends because when Cass is with Calinda, she is distracted from her visions. Although, one night Tilly woke up and saw Cass by the window, and she knew that she was having another vision. And about her dad, I think it said something about him being a "river man". Calinda probably is Delphine's servant.

Hey Mary! Well, it turns out that Calinda was technically Delphine's servant, but Calinda looked after Delphine and they consider each other as sisters. I couldn't believe Tilly's mother drown herself in the river! I guess she must have been really depressed. I think that was selfish of her to leave Cass like that. I'm pretty positive that she thought that Noah was in the casket instead of Tilly's father. That's really tragic. Now Tilly and her siblings don't have a mother or a father.

Yes, Delphine and Calinda are sisters I guess. I didn't know that Delphine was part black, and I thought she was older than 15 years old! Yes, I couldn't believe that she went in she went in the river! She should have just waited until they arrived back home to find out if it was Noah or the dad.
