Ape House: Chapters 13-25

Uncategorized

14 Feb

We’re back with more book club!



I’m really enjoying the book, it was hard for me to stop at the last chapter! Here are my answers to this week’s questions:


1. Would you watch or be tempted to watch a show like Ape House?


I can understand getting sucked in if it happened to be on the TV, but I can’t imagine seeking it out. I really don’t like reality TV in general and while this is definitely out of the ordinary, it still kind of falls in that category for me.

2. Do you think John did the right thing by quitting his job and moving to L.A.?

Yes, I think he did. He was really unhappy in his job, and I think it takes a lot of courage to take a risk like that and just do what you think will make you happy.

3. We haven’t seen a whole lot of Isabel in this section, but what do you think of Peter now that we know more about him?

I think Peter is a lying scumbag. He clearly has no feelings for the apes whatsoever. His involvement in the apes being sold in the first place keeps getting more and more suspicious.

4. Can John turn the ape story for the tabloid into something he is proud of? Is he getting a little bit of redemption by being assigned to his dream story again even if it is for a tabloid?

I think that he definitely can do work that he is proud of for the tabloid. As long as he is true to the story I think his work can overcome the establishment that hired him. I could see his work on this story helping him to get to the next level in his career.

5. Have your thoughts on John and Amanda’s marriage changed since last week? Where do you see their marriage headed?

Definitely. Through the first section I really loved their relationship. I really felt bad for Amanda because things clearly weren’t going the way she had hoped they would. Even though she was needy, it seemed like they both really loved each other. Now, I’m not so sure. Amanda makes really poor decisions at the expense of John and seems really self-centered and immature. Everything she does screams midlife crisis. I’m not sure that they’re gonna make it at this point unless she can pull herself together.

6. What do you think will end up happening to the apes?

I hope that they are moved to a better facility, even a zoo or something. Isabel needs to be involved in some way.

I’m so glad that I can keep reading now! I can’t wait to see what happens.

    Peter stinks! I feel bad for Isabel because she was so involved with him and didn't have a clue.
