My reaction to the book

If i look at this story as it is making fun of the mundane lives that people lead and the fact that we create problems for ourselves and make the same mistakes over and over again; then i kind of like it. the author demonstrated this perspective very clearly and he also presents social problems of this era and how people simply ignore these issues. This is the time less and universal theme. o the other hand the story itself in which jake and brett are in love and the crazy story behind that i think is amusing at first but then it was just frustrating. why couldn't brett stop being a tramp and hurting people!? But the truth is brett and jake may not have even seen that they were making these mistakes repeatedly. it seems obvious to the spectator but not when one is really living it. this is how the real world is we are stupid and we keep doing the same things and to the spectator it must be extremely frustrating.
