" I knew that my choice at this point was to listen to her argue and plead and whine at me for an hour, or simply agree. I wasn't`t in the mood to fight. Besides, I knew how difficult going to bed was for her."

- What were your feelings and first impressions after reading the opening chapters of this book? Explain
My first impressions after reading the opening chapters was that I kind of found it repetitive and and boring but after the first 3 or so chapters its very interesting and enjoyable to read beacause unlike the first three chapters which was all about him explaining his dads situation over and over again different things start to happen like a Commander and a Padre come to his school and he things that his dad has died and it just gets suspensful and keeps you intisipated.
