I just found this to be extremely far-fetched, especially since Ginny’s mom found her sister to be a little crazy (not the exact words used, but close enough sentiment) and encouraged Ginny while she was growing up to NOT be like her aunt. But as a parent, I cannot imagine EVER letting my teenage daughter travel internationally by herself with no way to contact me if she needed help. Ginny is 17 and instructed to leave the country by herself with no extra money and no means of electronic communication with anyone in the states. From there, she is to open one envelope at a time, and only when she is instructed to by the previous note.Īs interesting as this concept seemed, it also kind of lost me as a parent. Ginny receives a letter from her dead aunt telling her to pack one backpack, travel to New York to pick up a package, and to fly to London. ![]() I felt like 13 Little Blue Envelopes really started off at a good pace. Of course, I then proceeded to procrastinate on reading it for a while, but I did finally pick it up. I’ve seen 13 Little Blue Envelopes a few times around the blogosphere, so when I was browsing my library and saw it, I decided to pick it up. ![]()
