You see, right now I am reading The Good Thief by Hannah Tinti, and at first it was pretty good, until it hit such a slow and boring part of the book that just seemed to drag on and on. This made me even want to abandon the book and I don't abandon books that much ever. And I repeat, ever. But, I managed to stick with the book and get to this exciting part that actually makes me enjoy the book and want to read it. It comes with all sorts of twist and turns and was very well written.
Overall I am so happy I stayed with this book so I feel like I should include a little update on what has been happening in my book so far. Because a lot has happened.
- Turns out Benjamin isn't really Ren's brother, he is just a man who wanted a kid to help him steal things
- Ren accepts this idea of stealing and does it willingly
- Tom has learned to accept Ren
- Ren has been starting to miss Brom and Ichy a lot as the book goes on
- On this above note, I think it is foreshadowing that something bad will happen to Brom or Ichy or someone close because of Tom or Benjamin and I predict this because of this quote that seems just a little suspicous;
- ""Yes," Ren said. As he said it, he knew it was true. He missed everything about the twins, from the way they made him laugh in chapel to their secret codes over dinner. He even missed the parts he'd always hated, like the way Brom would continue to punch him, even after he'd given up, and the way that Ichy liked to confess to things he hadn't done. "It's a damned shame to lose your fellows." Tom took another drink." (Tinti, 90)
