I think I was in fifth grade or something like that when I read Dicey's Song, and I think I was just not mature enough to appreciate the thorniness of it all. I wanted Dicey's crotchety grandma to reveal a heart of gold, a la Marilla in Anne of Green Gables, or Dicey to stop being so angry all the time, or SOMETHING, some kind of movement towards less emotional complication and more happiness, and it just never moved that way at all.
