Query: Could Have Been Better....

I thought this book would have been interesting since I am a student currently going into teaching myself. Boy, was I wrong. I'm not sure if it was because this book was written years ago and teaching might have been different, but there were many things that Claire did that would NEVER have been acceptable nowadays in the school system. Also, I'm not sure if this is because this book is one from a long going series, but I felt like the relationships between the characters (especially Claire and Peter Rosen's) was very unrealistic and didn't seem to have much substance. I also felt like there was much detail lacking in the story. I think the story could have been improved if we had more description of what the town is like and how the characters live, etc.
