Bennett Hall has lived a rather uneventful life. Living with a mother and an Aunt who was dominant, pressurised Bennett into doing exactly as she
wanted she has moulded Bennett into a compliant woman with no will or interests of her own. When Bennett decides to get rid of the enormous house
that she lived in all her life, with all its furnishings, she steps out of her comfort zone into a world of strangeness - a world where she can
decide what she wants to do next. For Bennett however this is not easy. She has no idea what she wants to do, has no desires or longings of her own
to fulfill and is hesitant to even try out anything new.
Her adventure starts with buying a ordinary house in a quiet neighbourhood and then befriending a neighbour. This sets off a chain of events which
will bring adventure, love and a new focus in her life. It is an idealistic way of looking at the way Bennett's life changes - all for the better, with
a few initial hiccups on the way. It made for easy reading as well. It is an ideal read to take on vacation. You can pick up where you left off without
any worries.

I was reading a little about The Best Thing About Bennett the other day. Bennett sounds like an interesting character with a lot of self-discovery ahead of her.
