First things first, you would think the Tucks, being over 100 years old, would have more common sense, but that seems not to be the case when Winnie tries to drink from the pond. Mae and Miles show up with their horses and then kidnap her later at night, when she is still uneasy and probably still scared. Jesse just tells her that when she turns 17, they should get married. Also, she is supposed to be 10; she acts to mature for her age and doesn’t really act like how a ten-year-old in real life would act. Also, Jesse acts way too young for how old he is supposed to be. Overall, I think that the story could have had more detail, the plot could have been thought through more, and maybe it could have made Winnie older.
Good Points
Tuck Everlasting was bad. The plot moved slowly, the characters weren't written well, and the part where a literal 104-year-old wanted to marry a ten-year-old child is not ok, not to mention the fact they kidnap Winnie and she develops Stockholm syndrome. Are we just supposed to look over that?
