He craved “normalcy,” and he wanted human connections, but he just couldn’t do..."I agree about Jake's fantasy life, not sure what the source of his mental condition would be. The Readers' Guide for S&S pb edition completely ignores this and asks questions as though she is real. I suppose that could create some interesting conflict in a book club discussion. Anyway, I don't think Jake's 'condition' is easily labeled, even by psychologists, but then I don't think people are either.
Why can't we flag these for 'spoiler alert' as I remember doing before?
