Summary
So far this book is about a guy with a messed up life.His family is crooked and lives their lives as a roller coaster.During the story of his life, he tells about his mother.He talks about how his mother never told him her real name and how she would always act different when she was around his family.He also talked about how his family was a living disaster(he really didn't say that but I'm making an inference on how he felt.)
