This one was okay. I didn't really understand or know what the point of the book was for a lot of it. A girl moves to this condo complex where her now dead mother used to live. She never fit in with her dad, stepmom, and step-siblings. Other residents are reclusive until the most annoying resident dies. The girl, Zoey, gets the residents to talk and be friends. A story about the ghosts of our past impacting our present lives/futures and letting go of them. Meh
