When one of the main characters, Alex, has to decide whether she wants to go back to her childhood home with her family, or stay with her grandmother in her new home, Alex is reminded to follow her heart. Alex says this when deciding where to stay, "I wonder, though, if home sometimes isn't where you're from."
