From all indications, Claire bagged the honorary favorite character.
To think that she has an accomadative heart is warming

I like her Hillarys younger daughter Claire. Claire's has childish enthusiasm. However, my favorite character will be Hillary. She was well developed.shes enjoyable and straightforward. She needed vacation with her husband. Hillary wants to search into her Irish family roots.

My favorite character has to be Hilary. She is strong despite all the challenges she is facing. She also reminds me of my mum because she is very caring and supportive.

My favorite character is undoubtedly Hillary. I loved her growth throughout the story. Hillary came from a difficult childhood but she made sure she was always there for her daughter. She did not let her past over shadow her future. She is tenacious woman who knows how to handle her problems on her own. The way Hillary is portrayed in a strong manner also serves as an inspiration for her daughter.

Yeah! I love her character! Also, she is full of love. Her character always made my heart fill with warmth. She has a positive aura too.

My favorite character is Hillary. I like how she grew from a troubled woman to a strong mother. She overcame her tumultuous childhood and was always there for her daughter. The mother-daughter bonding is beautifully portrayed. She is a determined young woman who is in charge of her future. :techie-studyinggray:

Claire is my favorite character. Her portrayal was really authentic as to a real behavior of a young child. Her childlike innocence and curiosity warmed my heart. Even her whining was cute and realistic.
