Stay (End)

I just finished the book I posted about last Sunday about Clara. I just finished it and it was very sad. Her boyfriend through the whole thing was tracking her. He was so obsessed with the thought of being with her forever and got so caught up about who she would move onto next. He thought that she was mentally going to leave him for somebody else, and that scared him. he felt that if he didn't have anybody to be controlling of, he had no importance. He tracked them to she as staying with her father. Also, I found out why her father was os afraid of the water. He had lied about how her mother had died.  Her father had had n affair with another woman, and suddenly had called his found with his wife off. found ha found at him and then ran into the ocean in a boat and was never seen again. He doesn't want to touch the water because he feel that it swallowed up his wife so he doesn't want to be a part of it.

I feel that what Clara's dad did was wrong. He cheated on his wife and then broke it off with her suddenly after telling her. H knew that his wife was a fragile woman, and knew that she would take it back. I also feel that she might have been a little emotionally unstable if she ran into the ocean in a storm on a small rowing boat. She also had a 2 year old daughter (Clara) to look after, and just abandoned her. I think they both have some faults on their sides. I think that it was her dad's fault to cheat on his wife in the first place and  I think that maybe his wife should've thought about it before she actually committed suicide. For the boyfriend, I personally think he had a disorder that made him overly obsessed with a person and that he needed medication to help him.

Stay

This book I just started is called Stay by, Deb Caletti is about a girl named Clara. She is living with her funny, artistic writer of a dad. When she was very little, her mom died. This has always been a big part of Clara's life has always been missing. When she meets Christen at a basketball game, it maybe feels like that hole is being filled. From her last boyfriend who was very nasrasisitic. He lot her off to drop her at home 4 blocks away. He was abusive and not good person. Christen is like nothing she has ever met before. He's sweet, caring, organized and seems to love her as much as she loves him. So far Clara's dad has shown his dislike for him because he thinks that he will have a hard time letting Clara go, if they ever do break up.

 I agree with Clara's dad. During the book Clara notices that he never throws out anyway. the author is also writing this book as it already happened, so the character can comment on the actions that are taking place. I think that this shows that he would have a hard time letting people go that he really become attached to. I think that Clara is in deep trouble because I think he is bad news. I think that he on the outside look so perfect and has an Australian accent and look so innocent because his mother abandoned  him at a young age. I think though secretly he's an abusive boyfriend that would potentially become a threat to Clara's safety and maybe even her life.
