It's ruined his emotional well-being and the relationships he once had. ]]> 2019-04-12 13:05:20 UTC https://padlet.com/derrimad000/zayjfjtvzqck/wish/351131011 derrimad000 https://padlet.com/derrimad000/zayjfjtvzqck/wish/359876957 The theme that is consistent throughout the book is the theme of the double. When Bruno murders Miriam he doesn't feel guilty like he should he feels a sense of accomplishment. Where as when Guy murders Bruno's father he's immediately filled with guilt. ]]> 2019-05-14 13:03:35 UTC https://padlet.com/derrimad000/zayjfjtvzqck/wish/359876957 derrimad000 https://padlet.com/derrimad000/zayjfjtvzqck/wish/359883338 No I would not recommend this book because it's super predictable throughout the whole story which made it really boring. ]]> 2019-05-14 13:15:58 UTC https://padlet.com/derrimad000/zayjfjtvzqck/wish/359883338 derrimad000 https://padlet.com/derrimad000/zayjfjtvzqck/wish/359884907 Takes place in the 1950s in the United States. ]]> 2019-05-14 13:19:15 UTC https://padlet.com/derrimad000/zayjfjtvzqck/wish/359884907 derrimad000 https://padlet.com/derrimad000/zayjfjtvzqck/wish/359887045 A song that represents my book would be Ain't No Rest For the Wicked. It relates to my book because it's about people committing crimes to benefit from it. The murders in the book were committed because it would benefit Guy and Bruno if Miriam and Bruno's father weren't in their lives anymore ]]> 2019-05-14 13:23:26 UTC https://padlet.com/derrimad000/zayjfjtvzqck/wish/359887045
