Chapter 1-3

I didn't like how the first two chapters went because first of all the book went directly into the case and a lot of the characters especially in Chapter 2 were introduced without much background information. In Ch. 2 I didn't like how Jazz was jumping from one thought to another while talking to the sheriff meaning in a stream of consciousness. But I liked how things went in Ch. 3 because it showed how much Jazz wants to help solve this case because he can't stop his instincts and knows that the police are doing the investigation in a wrong way. I also liked how the Chapter ended with Jazz looking at Howie's face covered with blood. Also I thought that the book was not going to be interesting after reading Chapters 1 and 2 but after reading Chapter 3 I think that the rest of the book is going to be interesting because of how things went.

I disagree with you Parth. The book does jump right into things in the first chapter, but i think that enough background info was given to help you get to know the characters a little bit. I don't think there were too many characters introduced either.
