Woman Reading

- I was my mothers daughter, destined to run...

- I was hardwired to run when I cared too much.

- Her laughter was short.  "We're all running."

I could have used this book for a few different catagories.  It was a story about children.  It takes place in an urban environment.  And it made a my emotions fling around like a whirly-ball.  After going over the list a few times, I chose R because running, leaving, is the main thread of this book.  Running, leaving, abuse and family.  

Friday Brown lived her life constantly running, constantly moving, with her mother.  When her mother dies she continues on the same path, constantly feeling like she needs to keep moving, stay away from anything that made her care.

I know I shouldn't think it, but I wonder how the story would have ended if she had followed her gut and ran one last time.
