I love the ending, but found it to be very different from what I expected- which is great for a reader. I won't tell more in fear of giving away the ending. The problem is solved when Heidi manages to take a long bus adventure to Hilltop Home and meets people who steer her toward the information that she needs. She wants to find out who her family is so she ventures out to Liberty, NY in hopes of finding her grandmother who was once believed to be in a photo found in a closet in her home. The problem in the story is that Heidi has a mother who is mentally challenged (only speaks limited words) and therefore, Heidi has no idea who any of her family members are. I have felt the same way in that I wanted to find out more about them since I never met them. I can relate to Heidi a little bit since I never was able to meet my grandparents. Although she doesn't interact too much with the outside world, Heidi seems pretty smart and prepared for the real world.
She has a mother who has a bum brain and has been home-schooled by her caring neighbor, Bernie. I am amazed at how well Heidi has done in life with the cards that she has been dealt. She doesn't want much in the world, but does want to find out where she came from and who her family is. I liked Heidi the most, since she is the main character and struggles the most in finding the true story to her life. Heidi, Bernie and Mama are the main characters and they are all totally believable. The story takes place in Reno, NV and Liberty, NY, but most of the action takes place on the bus ride to Liberty.
