meh, didnt save other post, what did i do? i rewrote this first on my and post and i can't get my old post back!

                    So I've recently began a new book called Motherless Brooklyn. It makes me crack up in the middle of project real, but also rub my temples with aggravation. For those who read the book, Minna, the main characters (Lionel’s') boss didn't really make much of an impression on me. I did not feel any sympathy when Minna died; I do really like Lionel the main character though. He seems like a cool person and all. I feel like, as I get deeper into the book I will start to grow closer to him and become a little more attached. One very interesting thing that I especially loved about this book is that it takes place in Brooklyn. As Lionel describes his childhood, places in Brooklyn he sees, schools and people he knows, it becomes easier for me to relate to him. Parts of the story practically take place in my backyard. One thing I really like about this is that it gives me a different perspective on Brooklyn, this story seems to be more about gangs, violence, secret meetings, (I’m really not too sure yet) this is a part of Brooklyn I don't really know too much about so it's interesting for me to read about that. Another reason I like that this book takes place in Brooklyn is because I find it interesting to read about one-person memories in a place that I also share memories at. For example, when Lionel talks about the Brooklyn Bridge and that area, my mind just jumps to memories of hanging around the promenade and the people I know who live there. It makes me sort of nostalgic but I guess it also brings me closer to the book.
