Awww....you're great! Thank you for setting the chapters up! I'll be back in a minute after I page back through the chapter for thoughts (otherwise I might accidently jump ahead in my comments!!).

By the way, the poem at the end of Ch. 4 is really great. George Junior Republic and Bill ward seemed to both be good for him. The incident at the Y really didn't surprise me that much and again I had to laugh at picturing a young man in his pajamas looking totally out of place there at the homeless shelter. Not laughing at the situation though- again, just sad and unfortunate.

Kaili you are so right.. it was scary and sad but such a funny funny image!! At every point in this book you just want to scoop Antwone up and hug him!

Yes, a very funny image. The poor kid was so far out of his element. The poem is heart-wrenching, but very good.

He has since published a book of poetry that is said to include a poem that was used in the movie. Haven't seen the movie but may get that book.

Just finished chapter 5 and he is free from Miz P. But his life seems to not get better in the next chapter. His story is depressing me. I can not wait to get to the end or to the part where things are better for him.
