Ending of AOC

I enjoyed reading this book, especially because each character was unique. I was very happy with Frankie's decision to let Will and Cass adopt Tibet, not only because Will and Cass wanted a baby so much, but because Frankie did what was best for Tibet. It'd be so hard to give up your baby, but I was impressed with his thought put into this decision. It seems like Frankie has grown up alot over the course of the book, unlike Yumi. Another person who I thought has grown up over the book was Phoenix. I liked how he thought about his decision on whether to join the Seeds or stay with his mom. I have a hard time trying to understand Yumi and Elliot, however. I wish Yumi would be there for her kids more, and Elliot it just so uncompassionate. Does he understand the pain he's caused, not to mention Lloyd's heart attack? All in all, though, it was a great book.
