Although she does have a considerable amount of dialogue in the novel, the language she uses and the way she speaks, is not ghost-like but more like a young country girl (you would have never have guessed she was a ghost.) She is always wearing the same clothes in the book; ‘a dress that looked like it came from an old film’ and ‘big boots with fat laces’. I think that Tansey is a very loveable character in this book, as she was just a young woman who never lived to see her children grow up and is back to be with her dying daughter who is now in her 80s. Her past and why she came back makes the reader feel sorry for her and her children and this makes it quite an emotional novel. Tansey’s plays a crucial part in the story of the novel and is very important to the plot.
Well times that by ten and add a country accent to it and there is my sister. Every morning I would wake up and throw some clothes on and have to go down stairs to do my business because heaven forbid out step one foot in the upstairs bathroom while Sophie was getting ready. She wakes up every morning at 5:30 to make sure her hair was perfectly straight and her makeup was perfectly on, before heading to school. This ticked me off not only because it was in the morning but also because I had to drive her to school at 6:55 when school didn’t start till 7:20, she called it her “social time”. Sometimes I really think she is the mail mans kid and not related to me what so ever.
She has spent her life “saving” Kate, and Picoult shows this through a clever quotation. Later that night after the hockey game, Kate suddenly woke up to blood streaming out of her nose, eyes and rectum. When Brian and Sara were informed by the doctor that administering poison therapy would prolong Kate’s life, but not save it, Sara broke down. She called her older sister, Suzanne, unable to speak and begged her to come to the hospital. Picoult continues on this theme of “saving” by using Suzanne as Sara’s crutch, as she makes her coffee each morning and informs her of any missed phone calls.

Maggie selflessly insists that her sister can have the quilts (128). Maggie is also not a very strong character; instead she stays in the background most every situation that she can. For example, Dee and her friend rapidly approached the house in their car. “Maggie attempts to make a dash for the house…” but her mother quickly takes hold of her, making sure that she does not escape. Maggie was very uneasy around her sister; her mother tells her anxiousness in regard to Dee’s visitation: “Maggie will be nervous until after her sister goes: she will stand hopelessly in corners, homely and ashamed of the burn scars down her arms and legs, eyeing her sister with a mixture of envy and awe” (119).
