Viewing Notes

I would like this to be of a Christian slant however it’s not. But it is a period piece that doesn’t quite feel like a period piece. Very much a Family Channel flick.

TIL: Mandie is a character in a series of movies featuring Mandie. I’d like to see them.

This story is confounding b/c it makes no sense to me. One of the girls is hiding out in the attic but not welcome in the house but she’s writing a novel that mirrors the novel being written by the house mom. HUH?????
