Title: A love story?
Product review: I've taught this book to my high school senior English class for the past three years. They enjoy it quite a bit--much to their collective suprise.I'm fascinated by the fact that other reviews have described this as a love story. One of the issues that always comes up in class is Summer's motivation for helping Hatter. Is he doing it for her or for himself? If he is doing it for himself, is he motivated by naiveté, altruism, or selfishness--does he want to "prove" how he alone can save Hatter and thereby confirm his prejudice that he is superior to Levering and Winton?I would recommend this book not as a love story, but as one that causes us to question our own motives for helping, and perhaps for loving, other people.
