A direct example from the book of why our sense of belonging to a certain group comes with unspoken rules would be when Jay's friend Seth tells him he is no different from the white kids at their highschool because he acts just like them.

I find myself relating to the main character Jay many times throughout the book. When Jay is singing karaoke with his aunts having an amazing time he states, "I start feeling really f-ing sad about MIa having a boyfriend and the fact that un isnt here singing with all of us" (Ribay 222). I can relate to Jay here because I find that the happiest times can end up bringing out some sad thoughts sitting I've sat with.

I can see myself within Jay the main character when it comes to himself worrying about schoolwork, yet I learn that other people in the world are being faced with problems 10x worse. When Jay learns Jun was kicked out for using weed he states, "All of that not over meth, but over weed--a drug probably half of humanity has tried at least once" (Ribay 168). This quote is a direct example of the hypocrisy of upper class
