"Dee, though. She would always look anyone in the eye. Hesitation was no part of her nature." (pg. 174)
Although she was extremely obnoxious, Dee was the kind of character that I could fit into my own life. I know plenty of people like her. She's headstrong, selfish, and confidant. She seems to have it all, and she knows it. She's the kind of character that is portrayed in stereotypical teenage dramas as the mean, popular girl. It's her way or the high way. Despite her character flaws, I can almost understand where her actions come from. She has potential to go places, but she grew up in this poor, rural environment. Now that she's experienced freedom and culture, she's going to take as much of it as she can to try to keep from losing it.
