Those Eyes

In the first chapter of the book, there is a lot of focus on Rachel’s eyes. This is focus on her eyes is repeat throughout the chapter on pages 3,10, and 15. The author starts giving me the idea that this is a wonderful thing to have on a pretty young girl. Then through the rest of it, describes it like something distasteful, appalling, and just a downright abominable to have. These blue eyes seem to be a problem for a lot of people.
My wife’s family has nothing but brown eyes and they always tell me how much they want my green eyes. But for Rachel, the kids at school, the scarf lady, and even grandma see it as something to far out place. Grandma, though she says in runs in the family to have blue eyes. She makes it very clear through her statement that it should never be there. But I think it just show the beauty of the characters soul.
