ANIMAL DREAMS!!

One of the quotes that I like was a line said by Loyd when him and Codi meet for the first time in high school. He says "Are you kidding me? How many beautiful six-foot-tall women do you think we have in this town?"(pg 62). I like this line because it shows how thoughtful Loyd is. Although he is thought of as a ladies man, he still remembers Cosima from high school. Him remembering Codi after so many years shows us that he is more then just a ladies man.
My favorite character in this novel is Loyd. Loyd knows what he wants in life, unlike Codi. He is also very loving towards Codi. We can tell that he really likes her and want a better relationship with her because of all the things he is doing for her. He wants to show her where he grew up and he wants to share his life with her, which shows that he does love her. Loyd is also a very calm and relax person with a lot of patients and is willing to help Codi realize what she wants out of life.
The most important scene in the book is at the beginning of chapter 1 when Homero is looking in on the two girls while they sleep. I think that this is the most important scenes because it foreshadows a lot of the book. It states how close the two girls are and how much they have already lost and how much they have to lose. This is foreshadowing that they might lose each other in one way or another. It also points out from the beginning that these to girls are almost like one, which, later on in the book, turns out to be Codi's down fall.
