Chapters 3&4

In these chapters David has a dream, a nightmare really. In his dream he is with his family a normal killing of recent deviations , but this time it is not a two headed chicken or messed up corn it is his friend, Sophie. This made me think, is he maybe predicting the future? I predict that Joseph finds out about sophie and kills her. Also when David gets a splinter and starts bleeding and tries to bandage his hand. but his mom has to bandage it, David says he could have bandaged his hand if he had a third hand, but his father thought he was wishing for a third hand. His father gets angry but in David's mind he did nothing wrong.

Chapters 1&2

The book's setting is in a post apocalyptic state. It is at a time after a nuclear war when society has started to rebuild. Now this reminded me of a video game called fallout were there is the same situation of mutants and the rebuilding of society. In this society people are stuck on the idea of what is human, and how the slightest deformity is "hateful in the sight of God". David grew up learning this, but began to question this as he met Sophie a sweet girl with six toes on each foot. "God couldn't hate her, could he?" David thought. I predict that later Joseph will try to kill Sophie when he finds out about her deformity.
