Lunch-Box dream

 
 
I have begun to like my book more as I get farther into my book but I do find it confusing and feel as if it leaves out parts. The beginning of the book got off to a slow start and took so long to pick up that I don't think that I would recommend this book to anyone. I am glad that it has picked up so that I don't completely dislike this book.

My book has begun to get more interesting now that I have gotten farther into the book and it is showing more conflict between the characters and it is beginning to  explain how the charecters are feeling at certain points in time. There are still some points in the book hat the don't talk enough about and leave stuff out but it has definitely gotten a lot better sense the beginning of the book.

Lunch-box dream

I am almost all of the way through my book has begun to show some tension between the characters. Bobby has been stressed out and felt a little unloved. During one of the chapters I read over the week he stole a bag of shotgun shells the they had as a souvenir at the store to prove to his brother that the shell he found in the woods was fake. His brother began to scream and his mom found out that he stole them. Bobby got so mad that he stormed off up the hill and broke the fake sword his mother bought his when he went back to his family they got back in the car and started driving some more. The family gets to this place that looks run down and the pull in but to large men come towards them so the family tries to drive off but they pop there tire on a wire fence. As they drive off they don't see a semi truck turning onto their street and go to swerve away from it at the last minute but then hit a pole.

I have 40 pages left in my book. Over the last week the book has started to talk more about the other family. You begin to learn more about how a African American family grew up differs from how an American family grows up at this time period. They little boy goes missing over the chapters I read and the family is really concerned about him. Also as the other family drops off their grandma the emotion of the brother and mom towards bobby come out and it makes bobby feel like the family doesn't like him.
