I thought I was the only one who felt this about Sky. Sky felt like a more dangerous person than Dan. I felt the author was trying to give us a twist in the story by making Dan look like the villain but that did not turn out so well. Cynthia's character was very unstable and poorly developed. I very much agree with you on this no woman would react the way she did to a total stranger.Hugo_W wrote: ↑24 Jul 2019, 10:52 I thought it might be an interesting thing to discuss whether people were more creeped out by Dan's behavior - such as bugging Cynthia's car and falsely reporting Sky to the police - or Sky's behavior - inviting a strange woman to his apartment, the unprotected sex, the letters.
Personally, I thought Sky was more of a villain than Dan. he had more potential to go south, and seemed unstable and brash in Cynthia's company. i wanted him to get away from her, and thought that no woman would ever react in the ways that she did.
What do you guys think? also, do you think that the author's depiction of Cynthia's reactions creates a worrisome picture of how women should react to advances? and do you agree with the hypothesis that Dan fed Cynthia the abortion pill?
I think they might be the most interesting characters to analyze.
