My English class is reading the book “Breathing Underwater”, it is like no other book that I have read and I really enjoy it. Nick who is the main character has had a restraining order against him because he hit his girlfriend. The author gets into this guys head and it makes you think a lot about yourself and relationships that you have been in or are in. I don’t know if it is just me or if everyone who has read this book thinks this, but I have found similarities not only in people I have had a relationship with but myself as well. I think that people in general have control behaviors and though it may not result into violence we all have them. Reading this book has brought to my attention abusive behaviors and the warning signs of them. I haven’t been in a abusive relationship and its probably because of the personality I have, but I understand how girls and guys can get stuck in one without realizing it. The fact of the matter is, is that I really like this book and it is one that I would recommend to not only my friends but to everyone.
