As the book progresses it continues to get smoother and easier to read. I’m not sure if it's the fact that the more I read it the more I become adjusted to the writing style or if the book flows a little better and just had a rough start. One thing that sort of shocked me and had an edgy undertone are the lesions. They are scars or marks on the body and the feed basically made them because the way they are viewed in society is controlled by the feed. I don’t understand the lesions because it seems like it would be constant pain only to have the feed basically control what people think of them, because once the feed says it’s not cool to have them then they will just be scars and they will be standing out and something that will be with them forever. What I’ve noticed is the feed is in every one’s head and in their conscious. The feed completely controls what’s cool and not cool. It completely changes stigma and perception to how whoever controls the feed wants it. The feed is becoming more and more of a controlling system more than something to help the people. The feed changes how people think and creates a despondence on it and because its implanted everyone relies on it and it is potentially dangerous because of the dependence.

The book Feed is an interesting one. This book seams to follow more of a modern trend unlike Eleanor and park. Eleanor and park was a bit old fashion or so it felt, whereas Feed has more of a modern feel that hits a little closer to home. M.T. Anderson has a unique way of having the characters talk, he makes it complicated and at times it’s difficult to understand fully what Titus and Violet are saying. I don’t really understand the “feed” either the author M.T. Anderson doesn’t do a well enough job of explaining it and it leaves the audience in sort of a grey area on what it really is and sort of makes the audience guess on what it is. The way Titus and Violet communicate is more realistic approach. They start off as friends first which is relatable to almost everyone because we all have that friend that we can relate this story to as well as ourselves. The way they take their relationship slow by becoming best friends first shows that they actually care about each other and want to be able to be on the same emotional page with each other and they want to have something real not just jumping in head first and not having something that lasts. They both sort of agree to take it slow because they both don’t want their friendship to go to waste and of course they want the relationship to last. I also sense a sort of hesitation in them transitioning from friends because they are both so afraid to put it all on the table and get broken. Overall I loved the beginning of this book because it has a little more sense of realism and is interesting to follow along with.  

The end of Eleanor and Park is a whirlwind of emotions and events. At the end of the story Richie finally finds out about Eleanor and Park and goes crazy for a number of reasons. He goes crazy because he never knew about park and he never knew that they were dating none-the-less so he decides to go absolutely insane and search every corner of the city for her only to have wasted his efforts. Eleanor comes to the conclusion that she can’t stay at home any longer and it’s in her best interest to leave and go live with her uncle in Minnesota to finally escape the crazy home life she has been dealing with for the longest time. I was so relieved when Eleanor finally told her mom everything about park because it seemed to life this huge weight off of her back and sort of accept that Richie was going to be mad and be able to deal with it head on instead of continuously avoiding it. When park is able to drive Eleanor all the way to Minnesota I was shocked because his parents would let him do something like that. His parents understand how much Eleanor means to park and they understand what he is going through so that is most likely the reason they let him go. When Park drops her off they both know what will happen but they dint want to face it. After park leaves he still likes her so he continues to write her letters but what shocks me is the fact that Eleanor never opens them or replies to them. Maybe she is trying to get him out of her head because they know they most likely not see each other again. Overall this was a very enjoyable book and I would recommend it to anyone who is in search of a good young adult literature book.
