Throughout the Gracious Plenty thus far, I have come to a rather huge conclusion there is no such thing as minor characters because they all contribute so much to this story. However, if I had to pick one character that I find most intriguing in this novel I would have to pick Lucy. Yes, I know that technically she is dead, but she has told us so much that you have to wonder what she has left to tell. So far we have learned that her "murder" was not a murder, but according to her actually a suicide. Then, in her life she had a boyfriend that she let mutilate her by writing words across her breasts, having survived a disturbed father, and not to mention her forced pageant life by her mother. I can not help but think that since she has already told Finch all of this that she has other things to tell, however tragic or disturbing they may be.
Yet apart from her actual living life her after life proves to be just as intriguing. Just from what we have seen already she proves to be an amazing character. Aside from her characteristics I find her wrath extremely fascinating it started when she was made at Finch for her relationship with Leonard then it seems to be escalating with the coming storm.
All in all, I can not wait till I see where her wrath is going to end up. I can not wait to she if Lucy becomes lighter as they say. If she can overcome her life that made her so extremely unhappy that she had to run away and fall so far from grace that she felt she had no choice but to take her own life. I am wondering and hoping that she will find peace in death.
