The Program question

I was utterly disgusted by him and the whole situation. I mean, we already knew the Program wasn't good and that it wasn't just about helping depressed teens heal, but that there would be someone in it, someone who is supposed to facilitate those teens' recovery, who actually exploits their worst fear in the most devastating way possible... What he did has messed up completely healthy people. I don't usually advocate violence but I was pretty happy when he got roughed up by Realm for once.

YES I HATE HIM SO MUCH! He reminds me of Blake from Obsidian.

I hate Roger. So so much. Especially when he pretended to be August and was acting nice and stuff. I was really happy when Quinn stabbed him with the syringe and I was pissed when Dallas didn't end up killing him. What he did, and how he treated all those girls, including Dallas and Sloane, was so awful. Thank you Realm, from breaking his arm (even though I don't like Realm that much) and thank you Dallas for stabbing him even though unfortunately he didn't die.

omg yesssss,he is a total slut/pervert.He takes advantage of these desperate people just so those people can get ONE MEASLY PILL!!?? So cruel

ABSOLUTELY! Everything that he did in this book and the rest of the book series angered me in a way I can't even begin to explain. Sure, there's trauma, but honestly, trauma didn't cause this, he's just an absolute turd. I'm not going to say I wish Young didn't put him in the books because I don't. While he is a jerk face, he helped develop Sloane's character in marvelous ways. I have to say though, he's definitely on my fictional character blacklist.

i think that's the point and i think that it was well written to give you that reminder that being put in the Program isn't the worst. there's still even more horrible stuff going on inside.

What's worse too is that as the story continues - you've not heard the last of him....
