Or how about being born and then immediately being left alone to fend for yourself? Add to that being hideous. I don't want to keep blogging about how stupid Vick is, but I want to keep to blogging about how stupid Vick is. I feel like the second half of the book is Vick wallowing in self pity. He is a character of many ups and downs, but by the end of it he sort of mellows out into just a down. Mario's threat to "be with [Vick] on [his] wedding night" really haunted the irritating fellow for a long time. From that point on, nothing could put him at ease. Not even marrying Liz made him happy, because he feared her death every moment. I think it is pretty ironic that Vick was so worried about Liz the entire wedding and when he was finally like- I need to figure this out and check around for Mario-she is murdered. Way to take the initiative, bud. But you were a little late (and wrong).
