I think
Iversen’s writing style gets easier to cope with as I keep reading. I’m now
able to switch back and forth from her childhood to other, seemingly
unconnected, events, and see how the one will affect the other. After seeing
what Rocky Flats is doing to the community, I’m dreading having to finish this
book. I am appalled that officials let things get so out of hand with hazardous
materials and I can only imagine what outcome this will have on Kristen and her
family.
I feel
a deep sadness for Kristen and her siblings because of their parents. It amazes
me that the two of them give very little concern for their own children. The
mother doesn’t bother to properly take care of them anymore, soaking in her own
misery, and their father’ alcoholism got way out of hand. That he even
considered driving them anywhere in his condition amazes me. People are
supposed to protect their kids.
