Be aware that the main character is not the most likable person. I would hope most of us would be more caring and helpful to a sibling in distress. It takes courage for an author to create an unsympathetic main character.
But listen to this: "I think it's good to take the time to fix something rather than throw it away. It's an antidote to wastefulness and to the need for immediate gratification. ... If you're careful, the repair can actually add to the beauty of the thing, because it is a testimony to its worth."
Is that great writing, or what?
LOVED the book for its insight and beautifully drawn characters.
