The Climax

By  the middle of the book, April had finished high school and got herself an apartment of her own just a few blocks away from where she worked. April is an assistance at a lawyer office. There she met a man named Bob. They started hanging out lots and lots. They both seemed to fall in love with one another and Bob purposed to April. She said yes! Cheryl did not like the idea one bit. When Bob had mentioned that he would love April to move in with him, she was totally down with that. When Cheryl found out that April was moving in with him, she was disgusted because she had gut feeling that things wouldn't work out because Bob was not indigenous. April ignored Cheryl and moved in with him anyways. Things were going great at first, but when Bob's mother and Bob's "friend" Heather were talking, Heather had said that she and Bob were in love that April needs to go. April was home that day, his mother and Heather didn't know that at all. When April had confronted Bob about it, he told her the truth. April had felt heart broken and stupid for not listening to Cheryl about him and his family. I think the author did good about the climax and about his part because it shows that even though you find an idea great, there's going to be someone close to you that has a gut feeling that it isn't a very good idea, but you end up doing it and than you realize you were wrong and they were right. The setting of this book took place in Winnipeg, and the story is set in 1983. Iv'e only been to Winnipeg once when i was about 12 for soccer. I think its believable of where the story took place because its the authors own experience. Besides April moving away and such, Cheryl seems to be having an alcohol problem and it seems that when April had left Cheryl had been going out lots, to the bars and the streets. This particular situation reminds me of my friend and me having a conversation about boys. i would tell her that this one boy was no good, and I would constantly tell her this but she wouldn't listen to me at all and she would end up feeling hurt all the time. I ended up ending our friendship because she wouldn't appreciate my advice or help at all.
