Pgs: 22-32

This chapter definitely shifted the focus of the book sharply towards Jake, the narrator. When he meets a girl named Georgette and then a girl named Brett it becomes clear that we are very much in the [EXPOSITION] stage of the plot. “‘What are you called?’ ‘Georgette. How are you called?’ ‘Jacob.’” (Pg. 24) This stage of the plot is really unavoidable since it is essential to introduce characters and give some background on them. I am still a little confused as to the main character, now it seems that it is Jake but the first chapter or two were completely focused on Cohn and seem to be almost wasted at this point. Hopefully the book will start to pick up soon!
