Readers Response #3 - Flash Burnout

The book begins by introducing the four people that live in the Hewson's house: Blake, a high school sophomore; Garrett, his older brother; mom, a hospital chaplain; and dad, a medical examiner. Blake and his brother Garrett go to West Park high school together. On the car ride to school, the brothers listen to the school radio and for some reason it seems weird because they are talking about a new DJ; almost like its awkward for some reason. Once they get to school, Blake's girlfriend, Shannon, is upset with him. As a typical woman always does, she overreacted because he had forgotten to call her after dinner. "I can hear her muttering, 'He will rue the day' as she disappears down the hall.” This quote just leaves me itching to know what the climax of this book will be, because already it is showing signs of almost scary incidents waiting to come. This book I feel like I’m going to enjoy more then my last one because it has a side of suspicion to it that leaves me wanting to know what it is about the book that gives it the vibe of almost a dark side to it.

Here is the car that Garrett and Blake drive to school, that Garrett and his dad fixed up.
