Possible Conflicts and Prediction

Brian Huynh

I agree with how you think this book is intriguing and humorous and find all of these qualities while reading the book. While I was reading the second section of the book, Duke was talking about how you can never trust a drug user. On page 56, "One of the things you learn, after years of dealing with drug people, is that everything is serious. You can turn your back on a person, but never turn your back on a drug." I know this is a real life story but I can't help but think that this could be foreshadowing. I predict that maybe some kind of event is going to happen when either Duke or the "attorney" turn their back on each other and someone is going to get hurt. Like what Duke said, drug people take everything seriously and this is what might cause some major conflict in the future. From reading the book so far, you can tell that the attorney and Duke both mess with each and call each other foul names but what I predict is that in the future one of them is going to take it seriously and retaliate. Also on page 55-56, the attorney is talking about his girlfriend which just got introduced in the story. I think that in the future readings of this book, she will support a bigger role to the story. I can relate to how the attorney is think about how Lacerda has his girlfriend and the jealousy factor. It is easy to relate to the emotion of jealousy when it refers to a loved one. Some questions I have for you is how are you enjoying the book so far? Do you have any comments about any of the characters or any questions about the "plot"?
