[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I thought Beth's refusal of the Christian org's money to fund her Russia trip was selfish. She let her friend Jolene pony up her life savings on the off chance she would beat the guy she lost to in Paris. My controversial opinion is that she should have just taken the groups money and read the lines they wanted her to read. How many people would have a friend risk it all when there were other options?[/quote] Perhaps consider why the author of the book (and creator of the series) chose to have her make that decision rather than treat her as a real person.[/quote] I haven't read the book. But to me it was more evidence of Beth's unlikeability and anti-social behavior of which there was already plenty evidence of. Being anti-Christian didn't make her a hero to me. Not if the alternative of taking advantage of a friend she recently reunited with. It was hard to root for Beth sometimes.[/quote]
