This story is getting more and more serious every chapter. At first, this book seemed to be rather universal, not too serious or humorous, but now it is very adult. The tone has shifted considerably. I think the interaction between Lymon and Berniece is significant. I think this shows that Berniece may want to be with Lymon, instead of Avery. The friendship between Boy Willie and Lymon may be ruined if Willie finds out what Lymon did.
From Madison's blog:
Good points. Do you think that Berniece will chose Lymon or Avery? Or even neither? It's strange that the author doesn't pick a side, but rather makes the reader form an opinion themselves.
I agree with the tone changing. It has gotten much more serious than i originally thought. I am also wondering what will happen between Boy Willie and Lymon
ReplyDeleteI also think that the tone has been getting more and more serious as the story progresses, especially with ghosts showing up more often, an the romance scenes. I think Berniece might be reluctant to choose between Avery and Lymon.
ReplyDeletei agree with your comment, it is strange how the writer makes you pick sides because some people really dont like to choose what the outcome of an event is.
