What? I am so lost, and so confused! the Navidson Record was stupid. It was intriguing at parts but completely stupid at the end. I liked what Navidson ended the movie with, but what was the significance of the pink ribbon in her hair? Victory? The story about Truant as a baby, I'm assuming, was sad but confusing. Who wrote the story...his mother? How was the band obsessed with the book and Truant yet standing in front of Truant? Aside from all my confusion, i really did like the book, although i didn't agree with the ending and i guess a few of the chapters, i still believe this book is one of a kind and if i wasn't so frustrated with it right now, i would probably read it again to try and understand it better. This book should be taught in school absolutely.
I totally agree with your outlook on the book and it the ending. I thought I wasn’t that good and that I could have answer a little more, you know? But I guess it not like he going to write another follow up to this so what can we do right. And lastly I on your side about how the book is a one of a kind read. Never read or seen a book like this before and I don’t think I will ever will.
