NYC2123    -    Issue 3

The 3 part of the story is about a job that Jake and his partner have to complete. They have to steal a specific kind of squirrel from someone’s private collection. First Jake drives the car but when his partner threatens him with a gun, he has to steal the squirrel and his partner has to take care of the car and make sure that Jake can enter the building safely. It seems to happens easy, because it is not a hard job for both partners to make sure Jake gets inside. As the partner of Jake already said, it goes a little too easy for Jake and as soon as he returns back to the car they are surrounded by a lot of armed motor drivers. The couple tries to get away, but the motor drivers come too close and they try to get them out of the way, but due to the fast riding car, Jake and his partner are able to escape.

Besides the fact that it’s a very unusual storyline, it’s also an illogical story. Especially the part where Laney threatens Jake him with a gun because she wants to have control over the car brought up confusion. I wondered why she did that while they are partners and they have to work together.

As I said before, this genre is not the type I use to read, because it is not really my thing. I love to get really into a story while reading it and because this whole story is very unrealistic it gets very hard to realise how I would react or what I think about it. besides that, this part of the story, issue 3, shows again the a huge amount of ‘dirty language’ which is very common in the whole story. Although it really represents the situations those people are in, I don’t like reading those words because they distract me from the text, from the main part of the particular sentence.
