Dynamic Character

Throughout the book "Will Grayson, Will Grayson", so far the only character that seems to have changed and developed  the most is Will Grayson #2 (the one that has very bad attitude). In the beginning of the book Will was an ordinary high school student that struggled with socializing and finding self confidence. But as I read on, Will seemed to have opened up more in this whole new friendship he found unintentionallty when he had a dissapointing meetup with Isaac

A quote from the book that supports the development is on page 148, "it's not fair, because i didn't ask for dad to leave, and i didn't ask to be depressed, and i didn't ask for us to have no money,..."(this quote in taken directly from the book, even the format.) This quote shows Will self reflecting on his life and letting out what have been on his mind and what have been bothering him. This is something Will would have never done in the beginning of the book, since he was always an introvert that kept everything to himself even when he needed someone to talk to, because he felt that no one would have understand him. This sort of shows people that are suffering from maybe socializing or expressing yourself that you will eventually find someone, anyone that will understand you and help you through the hard times.

Connection with our society

As I was reading the part of the book where Will gets into a band's concert with a fake ID, it made me think of our society. What happened was Will wanted to go to one of his favorite band's concert named "Maybe Dead Cats" (the name is kind of weird.) Will has to be over 20 to be able to get in but he is only 20, so he decided that he will get a fake ID in order to get in. When he arrived at the concert'a entrance he was told to show his ID and drivers license, even though the birth dates on the two cards did not match, the guy at the entrance did not notice the mistake and simply let Will in anyways.

It seems as of the author was trying to hint an indirect message through these text showing how our society has become less observant of our surroundings, actions and objects around us. Reading this made me think of Fahrenheit 451, how in their society no one bothers to slow down and put their technologies and device away to truly observe what's around them. I feel as if our society is slowly changing, as we advance into a more modern world creating new devices and technologies that would soon stop us from enjoying the nature and the world around us. I agree that advance technology has many benefits in our world today, it helps with communication and transportation. But even so, we should also take some time out from our busy life, to slow down and enjoy our nature because that can also help with our health and stress.
