Summer Reading Book

I liked my summer reading book, The Lock Artist, because you were always wondering why something was happening or why the characters were doing a certain thing. "But yes it was. It was that guy. The guy with the long nose and fishing hat." In this quote you have no clue what is about to happen or what is going on with Mike, the main character. Also in this quote it shows why Mike was a genius at what he does "And in about two minutes later the door was opened, we had the money, and it was time to celebrate. Which brings me to the theme of the book. Since Mike's parents had died and he was the "Miracle Boy", the dramatic accident led him to not talk at all and do different things like picking different locks and become that "Lock Artist" led him to who he is now.

The characters like Amelia and Mike changes drastically meaning that Mike learned at the very end, because of his actions, shouldn't be doing what he was doing. Plus since his parents died he doesn't talk anymore because it was so dramatic and that he almost died means that he is still speechless.
