 * 3) How are Tucker's emotions expressed in the book? HIs expressions are expressed through the tone in his writing. His writing may have a comedic essence when reading it but how he feels about each story has its own independent style.
 * 4) Can you relate to any of Tucker's feelings towards some of the stories in the book? Yes i have had situations in my life that i can relate to in Tuckers stories however they are nothing like his stories.
 * 5) Are there more than one mood/tone of the book besides funny? Yes, there are many moods and tones throughout the book. He tells stories about times when he was frightened, excited, frustrated, angry, and many others as well as funny. Also, many of the stories he tells that are funny to the reader were not funny while they were happening. Looking back it is hilarious however at the time laughing is probably one of the last things he would do.

Summary (Steven Miller)
This week we focused on the mood and tone of the book. The tone and mood are still very lighthearted and this book should not be taken seriously. We talked about how Tucker is very unapologetic in his approach in writing this book. We mused over the fact that he is so willing to write stories that tarnish his friends and his reputations. Our group also discussed how Tucker is very selfish and only cares about himself. We related ourselves to Tucker b/c we all have moment where we only care about ourselves. However, we are not as extreme as Tucker and do not get into the same situations as him.
