Post A

Definitions
Sparingly Pg. 52:scanty; limited.

Mangy Pg. 81:squalid; shabby.

Sentence
Each chapter is a different story.***
Going along with the them of the book i think the theme of this particular story is the main character is really unsure of himself and throughout the chapter he gets really shy and self conscious.

Post B
Some of the stories are extremly hard to follow. They jump around alot, it gets confusing. This book is harder to reflect on because i cant get used to one authors style. But this current story is really confusing, its constantly going back and forth from periods of time without warning, like sentence by sentence.
