Plot

I thought that this book had a very interesting plot. There were a lot of unexpected twists and turns that really kept me on the edge of my seat. I was surprised at all the crimes and breaking the law that Jose and Ray did, especially since they're about as old as I am. One thing I didn't like about the plot was how late in the book the climax came. It seemed like a very small part of the book was dedicated to the rising action, climax, and resolution. I would've liked more detail and a little more information about what was going on. Other than that, I thought that this book had a pretty good, well- thought out plot. Between the crimes, girls, and money,  there are some pretty interesting conflicts and resolutions. They face a lot of problems that typical teenage boys face, as well as some problems that juvenile delinquents face. What I really like about the plot of this story is how it directly characterizes Jose and Ray. At the beginning of the book, you might think they were the same, but as you advance through the plot, you really start to see their differences.


 Thinking of the cops chasing Jose on his new motorcycle reminds me of this cop chase of a 15 year old boy.
