## Notes
|
||||
- In chapter 6023, it is another long chapter about a transgendered person.
|
||||
- In chapter 604, its is also a long chpater about someone's death.
|
||||
- Throughtout the book, I feel like the author is showing as a different side of society, the dark side.
|
||||
- More characterization of A
|
||||
- > I try to pretend this is my life. I try to pretend these are my parents. But it all feels hollow, because I know better.
|
||||
- Chapter: 6028, where A meets Nathan and the pope. Very nice atmosphere, the kind where on the outside, its all sunshine and rainbows, but on the inside is just evil. Great contrast also.
|
||||
- Great use of tension, character v.s character.
|
||||
- > “Get off of me,” I say, standing up. <br> He seems amused. “I’m not touching you. I am sitting here, having a conversation.” <br> “Get off of me!” I say louder, and start ripping at my own shirt, sending the buttons flying. <br> “What—” <br> “GET OFF OF ME!”
|
||||
- Strong metaphor, that shows the real evil of the pope. I also assiociate imagery of red eyes, as murder links to blood, which links to red eyes.
|
||||
- > Poole standing now with murder in his eyes.
|
||||
- Theme? Foreshadowing?
|
||||
- > “There’s no point in running away!” Poole yells. “You’re only going to want to find me later! All the others have!”
|
||||
<br> Trembling, I turn up the radio, and drown him out with the sound of the song, and the sound of me driving away.
|
||||
- Chapter 6033, which shows the final interaction between A and Rhiannon. A lovely atmosphere, with many allusions to common lovers in society. Heartbreak ending.
|
||||
- > “I want to fall asleep next to you,” I whisper. <br> “I love you,” I tell her. “Like I’ve never loved anyone before.” <br> Times moves on. The universe stretches out. I take a Post-it of a heart and move it from my body to hers. I see it sitting there.
|
||||
I close my eyes. I say goodbye. I fall asleep.
|
||||
|
||||
- Final characterization: last line can mean alot of things.
|
||||
- >I wake up two hours away, in the body of a girl named Katie.
|
||||
Katie doesn’t know it, but today she’s going far away from here. It will be a total disruption to her routine, a complete twist in the way her life is
|
||||
supposed to go. But she has the luxury of time to smooth it out. Over the course of her life, this day will be a slight, barely noticeable aberration.
|
||||
But for me, it is the change of the tide. For me, it is the start of a present that has both a past and a future.
|
||||
For the first time in my life, I run.
