I have quickly learned that Jody wasn’t much better for Janie than Logan. He appeared to have better intentions and respect, but he fell short. When he first struck Janie, I cringed. I wasn’t expecting it in any way. I was sad to see what could have been a great thing fall apart. I can’t imagine how she must feel and the disappointment that must be present.
I feel as if I was almost tricked into thinking the Janie’s life would be changed for the better in this newly found love. I was so wrong!
When Jody was dying, there was an interesting dynamic between him and Janie. There was so much resentment built up, that I didn’t particularly enjoy reading this section of the book. I’m not sure why, but it made me uncomfortable…..I think uncomfortable is the word to describe it.
After Jody died, it was obvious that Janie was relieved. She couldn’t exactly show this relief to the public, but she clearly felt it. I was relieved for her. I don’t see myself as the type that wishes people dead, but Jody’s death brought good to Janie’s life.
I can only hope that everything works out for the best, and that Janie doesn’t get sucked into another unfortunate situation.
