3rd Thought

So far, we've read 10 chapters and the book is getting weirder and weirder. How can someone like Jose Arcadio Segundo be invloved with a religious life and be dedicated and yet turn to fighting chickens and sex with donkeys. No on e in the book has any shame from the acts of beastiality to incest. Another thing that seems to be real bothersome is the fact that Armanta is becoming a "manizer" more and more as we read. She has basically thrown herself to two different males and is constanly playing mind games. She has no kind of future or lifestyle for herself. Then for all the Jose Arcadios, they all have this interest in discovery which is really disturbing cause it does nothing but lead to solitude. Only on has succeded with their inventions and thats Jose Arcadio Segundo. Hopefully something moral, happy, and fulfilling will occur in the book later instead of the same solitary, depressed, incestral, and death filled chapters that have been occuring.
