Flush

I'm just about to finish Flush by Carl Hiaasen. It is a really good book. It was much better then I thought it would be. A lot of people said this was a good book so I thought I would give it a try. I thought I was not going to like it because the title was weird. Now I know never ever judge a book by its cover because it could be really really good.

I did not have many connections with most of the characters. I think I was most like Noah. Even though he did some crazy things, I think I have some connections with him. We both are very curious. We always want to know whats going on. Noah has a little different kind of curiosity. His dad is in jail so Noah visits him almost everyday. He always wants to catch up with whats going on and wants his dad to answer all the questions he has. He also listens to all the conversations his mom and dad have to try and get the inside scoop to whats happening with there relationship. My kind of curiosity is different. I like to try and ease drop on conversations whenever I'm close enough. I want to know everything that's going on but I never end up getting to. I also have a connection with Abbey, Noah's sister. She also is very curious. We have that in common but we also over hear something wrong and think its true. Abbey overheard her mom talking on the phone about divorce. Abbey got all mad and told Noah and he got mad too. Than the next day they saw there moms suitcase out on her bed. They thought for sure it was going to happen soon. Well they did not get divorced after all, well not yet. I once overheard my talking on the phone about my family moving to a new house in Tiburon. I got all scared to leave Park School. Turns out my mom was talking about her friend moving to Tiburon. I was so happy after I figured out the truth.

I did not have much connections with the characters in Flush, but I still think its a really good book.
