Lee is one of Josie’s best friends. Lee is popular and enjoys drinking and hanging out with surfers, something that Josie finds perplexing given that Lee’s father is a verbally abusive alcoholic. Josie insists that she and Lee don’t have much in common aside from both being part of their group of four friends, though she and Lee can talk for hours about anything and nothing. The biggest difference between them is that Lee’s white Australian family uses anti-Italian slurs. Within the group, Lee is kind and is the only girl capable of reining in Sera at all. She’s not sure what she wants to do after she graduates.

It matters who I feel like I am—and I feel like Michael and Christina’s daughter and Katia’s granddaughter; Sera, Anna, and Lee’s friend, and Robert’s cousin.
