Upon reading chapters 27-30 many events took place which i found some what distasteful, but during the reading what really took the cake, was Milton. In any group or culture on this planet are you to bring up another’s sexuality to make fun of them.
In the beginning when Milton approached Blue for further help to investigate Hanna’s mystery case on whither or not she actually killed her self of someone else killed her. I was suspicious, because prior to when Milton asked Blue to go to Hanna’s to look around, he would not even give her the time of day, such as when Blue called him to talk after the Hanna incident. Thus when Milton approached Blue, I thought it was some evil ploy set up by the “Bluebloods” to get even at Blue for Hanna’s death. Instead the whole thing seemed legit to myself or even to any other reader of the book, which I think was a ploy by the reader to make Milton seem innocent and cover up what he really was, a dog.
Everything with regard to Milton and Blue prior to the end of the reading assignment I believe was to make what was bound to happen extremely predictable. In Hanna’s room even though the reader was not in the same room, you could feel the tension radiating from the room, and you knew something was bound to happen with Milton and Blue. Upon what took place Milton and Blue rolling around naked in Hanna’s bed making out, it put the reader at ease thinking “it is about time one of those Bluebloods came to their senses.” Thus that scene created a sense of ease for Blue with the readers.
But as previous chapters have displayed the author likes to throw those unsuspected curveballs at the readers, and come out from no where and uses that sense of security from Blue and the readers for Blue as the ultimate surprise. When Blue searches for Milton after school to hang out and possible enjoy another “naked roll around make out session” Milton not only shocks Blue into breaking down, but also the readers into seeing Milton as what he really is, scum. This appeared when nothing the Bluebloods were teasing Blue about were taking no effect so, Milton whipped out his trumo card on blue and made her feel inadequate
