Summary

The summary I had written for the week I was the summarizer is mysteriously gone so I had to write a new one and decided to write a summary about the whole book instead. I also wrote like a short analysis of my thoughts of the book.

Dale thinks he’s living an ordinary life in a completely normal family. One day though, his family’s, including his own, whole world turns upside down. Dale’s older brother, Gav (Gavin) is convicted as the rapist and murderer of five women, hence Dale and the rest of his family must move and change their names to not always be branded as relatives of a rapist and murderer. Dale changes his name to Glen and his family starts over in another city where they know no one. Everything seems to be fine, but Dale can’t get over the thought that he might become a just as horrible person as Gav turned out to be. At the same time, he still thinks of happy memories he’s shared with Gav. A lot of weird things happens throughout the book...

The book was really annoying to read since there were no speech dashes at all, so you had to read things people were saying before you could actually understand who said so. If someone could make a new edition of this book, with speech dashes, I could absolutely read it again. If no one adds speech dashes, I won’t read it again. There’s nothing wrong with the book - in fact, I bet it could be really interesting. But as for now, all it does is making me ill-tempered because of the lack of speech dashes. Sorry for all the commentatory about the speech dashes. I’d rate the book 2/5.
