Week One The Flowers

So far I like Sonny. I think Cloyd and his mother underestimate how smart he really is. With all the people he has been meeting at the apartment complex Sonny is getting alot more knowledge than a normal teenager would be getting. I'm not sure that Pink the guy that sells the used cars and Cindy the married girl that he has the hots for are good influences on Sonny. You can tell that he wants to keep his mom happy even though he truly has a gut feeling that his mom is not happy with Cloyd. I think that later in the book if things at the apartment complex start getting out of hand either at home with his mom and Cloyd or with any of the neighbors Sonny is going to bust out. Which is what he is waiting for to happen with his mom. He wants his mom to bust out of the apartment with him. Now that Cindy and Nica are in the picture though i think that he may want to help them out. Mostly Cindy since he has talked to her more and knows more about her and her situation. The stash of money that he has been saving from the houses he has gone into i believe is going to come in handy. I think he is going to use it eventually to leave with his mom and leave Cloyd or if that doesn't happen he is going to leave on his own. I'm really curious to find out how the relationship between Sonny and Cloyd plays out.

  1. I think we're all wondering how all of these relationships will turn out, that's one of the reasons I find the book so etertaining, the characters in the pages are so well thought out. I've also grown quite fond of Sonny it's hard not to when we're all following him so closely.

  2. I agree that were waiting for how certain relationships will form. And I agree with Nancy that its hard not to like Sonny when he narrates the book. I also mentioned in my blog post that I think the money that Sonny has is going to help him in the near future if he has to get himself and his mom away from Cloyd. I found that your post has some similarities to mine and that we agree on some predictions.
