The Sun Also Rises

so i thought id blog about this book. i basically felt one thing while reading the sun also rises, this is pointless! their lives are are really waste. I felt kinda bad for them actually. Basically all they do is drink and drink and drink. im surprised they can even function. Throughout the book i was wondering how they even make a living. none of them do anything! ughh it drove me nuts. and the other thing that drove me insane was Brett and Jake!! the whole time i read that stupid book i was wondering why dont they just have sex and get married if they love each other so much!?? then i recently found out that Jake is impotent and that cleared up a lot. i was so mad i didnt know that earlier..it really would have helped me out. i guess i didnt catch on that that was his war injury. but anyways i also got really annoyed with Brett. Shes just a slut and Jake is just always so sad he cant be with her. they all had miserable, boring lives and i feel bad for them. the one thing that kept me reading was the hope that they would all make something of their lives and stop being alcoholics but that never happened, unfortunitely. When i finished the book, i wondered what the point was and i yet to know...
