Do you guys think in that time period black will have happiness life? The answer for me is yes, or it depends on what people think. I remember in this novel, when August introduced her family, she said that her mon loves spring and fall, and that's why all of her sister's name is from month. I think her mom must feel really happiness in her life. But for April, she can't accept the unfair treat from others. For Rosaleen, it is happy to spend time with Lily. Different people has different goal, different goals make people feel different.
