The Moon and More; Theme and Summary
As you can tell I am still reading the same book but it is good not saying it's boring. I have currently just finished with chapter 14 I have to say was extremely interesting. There were alot of events that occured during this chapter. The setting of the chapter was in CapeFrost at a Panasian restaurant. Where Emmaline has dinner with her two good friends and Theo. At this dinner it gets akward as Theo pushes Emmalines friends out oftheir comfort zone. Making them feel uncomfortable. After their dinner they run into Clyde with a flat tire with some mysterious things in his vehicle. This only leads to to a higher build up to the already akward situation. For example "We all just sat there for a second the awkwardness like another person at the table. What a disaster, I thought. Beside us, the tourists were laughing, having a blast. Of course." ... "Theo said, finally," the thing is, I, um, didn't really get to do the dinner-dance, prom thing in highschool. Like, at all. I know all this fanfare was kind of stupid, with the cake and sparklers, the big reveal..." (pg 291). This little snid bit from the chapter show how it's not completely awkward but they feel bad for him and yet again it is another thing Theo never did and wants to do it now. Although Emmaline and her friends have done practically every thing in town that Theo thinks is so extravegant and new but truly it is the same boring thing to locals. With that statement you can see that all things are seen differently by all kinds of people and relating to the awkward situation they are in you can see that it might not seem that way to someone else, and it can sometimes be hard to accept the person/personality. That is also how it has gone so far throughout the course of the text with Emmaline's friends trying to adjust to Theo as he feel everything is cool and exciting to him but not to them. Those changes affect each event and how the turn out throughout the course of the text and so far it's not so good for her friends or family in hidden and not so hidden ways.
