Eric & Scout

This book just keeps getting weirder, but I'm still intrigued. I really didn't like Mr. Nobody and his gruesome description and I'm still confused about who he is. At one point it seemed to suggest he was Eric in a nother form...but it wasn't really resolved and left me confused. Scout interests me. I liked her from the moment she entered the story, but now I'm dying to know who she really is, what her role will be and what part her identity plays. The last line of the section made it for me..."Scout had a tattoo of a smiley face on her big toe." Who is she??!!

I don't have much else to say. I feel like I need to read this whole story and actually understand the point before I can really unpack the story.

Yes, I totally agree with the extreme interest in Scout and her Clio inspired tattoo, and with the cigarette thing? Clearly they know each other.

They said Scout was somewhere in her early 20's, and I think Eric (and Clio) would be in there late 20's, so maybe Scout is Clio's sister?

Oooo, that's an interesting idea.

The sister she mentioned or another sister?
