What Will Happen Next?

During today's reading I learned that Amy goes missing. I am going to infer that her husband, Nick, is going to either be framed, or a suspect to her disappearance. There is no supporting evidence or clues that would show me where she has disappeared to or who has taken her. I'm very excited to see what happens next whether I am right or not. I believe that Nick will be taken into custody because the officers seem weary and suspicious of him. This story has a huge amount of loose ends. I am excited to figure out what is going to happen.

What I do/don't like about this story.

There are a few things about this story that I don't understand and don't like. I don't like how there are two different points of view, one of Amy and one of Nick. Also, there are the points of view from different time frames and its confusing. I like the characters and the complexity of the actions they portray. It is a very adult book and I like it. There is a very large amount of loose ends but they will come together as the story goes on.

What a Character in My Book Would be Like as an Old Person

The person I am choosing to write about is Nick. I am choosing this because, as an old person, he would be very sarcastic and funny. I like him so far in this story and his personality is entertaining. As an old person, with grandchildren and the such, he would be funny. I think towards his children he would be funny but he would also be responsible and a little strict. He seems like the type of person who gets things done while having fun at the same time. He would be a lot more youthful than his age would reveal. I think that he would be somewhat close to his family while maintaining a distance. His family would enjoy his presence and like being around him. I think that he may be lonely due to the fact that he cheats and isn't loyal so he may not have a family. He has a good personality he is just caught up in stress.

If I were to suggest this to a friend

If I were to suggest this story to a friend, which I very well may do, I would have a lot to say. I would more than likely recommend this to a guy because it would relate more. This story is a good way to show his trials and tribulations of Jon Grudens life. Many people don't know who he is but some football fans would. I would say that this story has a good theme of never quit or give up. Also I think that it shows how if something is tough it is better to work through it than give up. Jon Gruden goes from a "Ham and Eggs" division III quarterback to a small town coach and works his way up to being a super bowl champion coach. It does a good job showing his work ethic, passion and love for the game.

An Alternate Setting To This Book

If I were to create an alternate setting to this book I would set it in a big city in modern times. Things would be the same, like her feelings wouldn't change and neither would her sons actions. There would be tons of differences though. Everyone in the story would have technology and the law would take over. The whole story would be entirely different.

What does the dialogue tell me

There are multiple extended and different dialogues in this story. The story kind of breaks off into different parts. In the beginning the dialogue and how people speak and act is like today but set in a more futuristic time and place. After around 150 pages the story turns into a prologue and shows what happened before hand. The words they use are very old fashioned and give me a mid-evil feeling. They don't speak as if they have been educated. For example, there is a little girl and she doesn't know what the color yellow is. They use very small and non complex sentences. All the actions they do in the story and medicine they use is very old fashioned.
