Sign Post

As I continue to read, "Somebody up there Hates you" I have noticed a sign post in the book. This sign post is called "Memory Moment" meaning, when you're reading and the author interrupts the action to tell you a memory. One memory that stood out in the book was when Richard remembered how he used to spend his Halloween. In the book it said, "This time of year was always my favorite: the best kid-holiday in the world, followed directly by the buildup to my birthday, November 12 -- I mean, that is kid heaven." This specific memory is significant to the book because on Halloween (now), Richard had the time if his life. By this, I mean that he got drunk, high, and went to a bar and met a girl.
