So obviously we all know I do not enjoy reading this book. I will attempt to spare everyone the agony of hearing more about that because redundancy is boring. It is EXTREMELY boring... I could not possibly be trying to imply anything about the book could I? Because the book is not exactly redundant (just... really... slow and dwells too much on unnecessary events).
But the thing is, I am going to try my hardest not to talk about how tedious it is to read this book. How I dread having to blog about it. I am not going to talk about these things. I forbid myself from saying anything about how I groan each time I even look at the book (woops... I guess I did say something).
Done! No more complaining (at least not about having to read it). Now for the actual discussion of the book, which I guess is a reaction in ways, but in reality my reaction to the book is my constant complaint. I do not find summarizing the book a reaction, but I suppose it might be nice to change things up and react to certain events in the book. Most of the events render me the same reaction, "yeh- that's nice- I get that you're sick and delusional Rodia", but I will try to change it up a bit.
So there is a huge collection of people visiting Rodia. They are all talking about different things and it becomes overwhelming. I realize that what they were discussing was important, but did they really all have to come at Rodia at once? I wanted answers, but this is were the description is actually supposed to occur.
Once we finally start hearing that the police actually are doing something about the fact that someone has been murdered, in comes Peter to just make everything annoying. As I suspected, he and Rodia did not get along at all. I suppose he is not quite the man Rodia's mother hyped him up to be.
Then Rodia continues to be annoying, I guess he felt that Peter was taking away his spotlight. He starts walking around being angry with people and confusing them. So now not only the readers, but the actual characters are aggravated with him. Joy!
Pretty much Rodia just continues like this for a while. He teases people, like when he hints that he may be the murderer, but of course it is taken as a joke. Some woman attempts suicide which makes him think about suicide, because he cannot go more than a few hours without thinking about something related to death. So yeh, that is what happens. I apologize for my reaction being so bland, but really, it is suitable for a story that is on the same level of blandness.
