debra Not sure anymore who died. Bass player could have seen Benji as news report of a horrific accident.


message 2: by Rachel (new)

Rachel Very true! But I think the mood and the remembrance was too happy for Benji to have died; it was more nostalgic than somber. I guess it's a sign of a good book to keep the reader guessing like this well after it's read.

debra Think I'm inclined to go with -Benji not dead. Think author is misleading us the way he did in the beginning with making us think one teen killed another with a shotgun. : ))

Fay Ratta Benji does not got to Hed. He stays in Beartown


message 5: by Rachel (new)

Rachel I didn't say anything about where Benji lived, so I do not understand the relevance. I just referred to his pro-hockey future, which is far removed from his training at Beartown and Hed. Are you commenting on the wrong post?


message 6: by Rachel (new)

Rachel I mean, I said he was willing to go to Hed. He seemed really conflicted about everything in his life. Not really sure why you are correcting me on something I did not say.


message 7: by debra (new)

debra Thought we were talking about where Benji was in ten years time(view spoiler)


message 8: by Rachel (new)

Rachel I'm lost lol. Anyway I stand by my original post.


message 9: by Jackie (new)

Jackie The person who died is either Zacharias or Bobo. Amat and Benji went on to the NHL.

Rachel Right we don’t know. I think you should’ve commented this in the general comments; not sure why you had to reply to mine from June.


message 11: by Amy (new)

Amy Zacharias is the one who had contemplated suicide. (Recall his 16th birthday.)


message 12: by Rachel (new)

Rachel This post is from three months ago. I’m contemplating why you responded to me and didn’t create your own comment. It’s a book meant to be interpreted; not meant to be bickered over.


message 13: by Lucy (new)

Lucy I thought it Benji went to the woods and shot himself like his dad. Zacharias and Ahmet played pro. Zacharias in gaming and Ahmet in hockey. Bono was a father after 10 years.

Rachel Not sure why you responded to my comment. Maybe you intended to create a separate comment?
