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?
