The seniors can be tall, loud, and slightly obnoxious. As their years progress, the teens become more comfortable and begin to find their roles in high school. What group do they hang out with? Why do they wear what they chose? Even the smallest details matter. Instead of worrying about a very important education, the teens are focused on what to wear or how to fix their hair.
What is dubstep? It is a type of electronic music that students normally hear at raves…or is it? Well yes, it is electronic music but it’s no longer just a rave thing.

There’s no fancy bell that rings at 3:10, never the less, students flood the hallways and stream out the doors. As students flee quickly from the school, they stop and pause. They hear a sound that takes them back to their childhood, a jingle that pulls their eyes to a white truck.

When one approaches any novel by Danielewski, they usually expect innovative typography mixed with the author’s surprising prose. This was shown in his first book, House of Leaves, where he manipulated the text on the page to express ideas, thoughts, metaphors, and plot.
