There was more of this humor on this page, and that’s what I like in a serious novel like this.
Passage 2 (page 31): I was impressed of this passage because of the humor: “At the left margin you type, ‘Dear Amanda,’ but when you look at the paper it reads ‘Dead Amanda.’”. That’s what’s good in this book, the good use of the English language. It has an impact on the reader you want to read on, because you want to know what happens to the main character. Particularly the last sentence had me impressed. Passage 1 (page 12): I was impressed with the last paragraph of this page. He lets himself being tempted to use drugs, he isn’t good at saying no, e.g. If he keeps doing this other people will reject him. He often forgets appointments he makes, such as a date with Vicky. Megan takes care of the main character, but he doesn’t do a thing back. He is sometimes very arrogant, he doesn’t mind other people like Megan. He is good at not taking things (and life) too seriously this is useful in situation where something bad happens. He is capable to recover from a bad situation, at the end of the book it is seen that he is going back to his old life, which is a better one than the one he used to have. He is very polite to everyone this is of course a good thing. Gradually he begins to pick up his old life. But at the end of the story, he meets his brother, they talk about their mother. He wants to pick up his old life, but he can’t do it at that point. Then the main character is fired and he goes further into the downward spiral.
He tries to look normal to the outside world, but he isn’t. He has a friend called Tad, who is a party animal. He is addicted to cocaine and he very often goes to nightclubs.
His mother died a year ago due to cancer. The main character is 24 years old and lives in New York.
