Nevermore
In the book, Nevermore by James Patterson, the main character Max faces a love triangle, a tragedy, and a problem that she never imagined. And she deals with all, of it inside her head, until she can't handle it anymore and goes on a berserk rampage.The first problem she encounters is when Fang, part of the flock and until recently was Max's boyfriend- returns, all bloodied up and wounded, Max rushes to help him. But there is a problem. Dylan- a clone, who was created to be Max's "perfect half"- wants out of the picture, and knows that Max will never forgive him, but it has to be done. I think that if he knows what Max really thinks of him then, he won't have a reason to kill Fang, and everybody is safe.
Another example is when Dylan took Max to the Arch De Triomphe and told her his feelings about losing Angel (one of the flock members who recently was killed in a bombing in Paris) and told her that she should just let her feelings out,because if you don't you will explode. And he is right because you can't hide everything you're feeling on the inside. Max uses sarcasm (actually a lot) because she's afraid of what her flock will say to her because she's kind of responsible for them ,and if she cry about every single little thing, then they will start following her because she's the leader and the oldest and, well, the smartest of the entire flock.
And then another time Max was talking to her Voice (she has a Voice inside her head) and she couldn't take it anymore, so she decided to cut herself, to distract herself from the annoying Voice. See? that's what you get for bottling up your emotions too much.Crazy, annoying things, can lead to dangerous thing, but she didn't actually cut herself, Fang stopped her from getting the knife into her hand. I can relate, because sometimes I hide things from my friends, and no matter how much they persuade me, no matter how much they bribe me, annoy, I don't tell them. Its okay to do it sometimes, because you don't want to share to other people,that's perfectly okay, but doing it all the time, like Max, and replacing it with, like sarcasm, then you might end up killing yourself . What do you guys think?
