Social Commentary
While reading this book I understood that even though this book
is fiction, its story is true to many people. Society has changed over the
years, and things have gotten bad. In this book Kevin and Katie sounded like a
perfect couple. It sounded as if they had no problems, but little did anyone
know that as soon as Katie was alone with him, she was tortured and abused.
This isn’t the way people should be treating each other, at all. I know this
happens to people and they can’t get away from it. The abuser threatens them
like Katie in the story. The worst thing in this story, is that Katie is told
she still has to love him, and mean it, otherwise she gets hit. Kevin is always
telling her he loves her even though he abuses her. To me it just doesn’t make
sense. I’m glad the book ended the way it did, but unfortunately other people,
in real life, can not escape.
