the soloist

I've recently read chapters 7-12 in The Soloist. and my experience reading this book so far has been quite moving. Im almost afraid to see the movie because it might make me sad. and i like how it dwindles away a little bit from Ayers story to talk about other people like Joseph Russo. I believe that it shows that there is a little bit of inspiration in everybody's story.

the soloist

i think that the the first six chapters of the soloist were really good. i usually have problems reading the books that are given to us because their just plain boring. but this one really keeps me hooked. and the fact that this is a true story makes it even more appealing. but it does raise questions just like anything would. like: what kind of childhood did Nathaniel Ayers have to lead to his mental illness? im sure ill find my answer as i read on.
