Currently, I’m reading a novel called “Ripped at the Seams”.
So far from what I’ve read it’s about a young, eighteen-year old girl, named
Sammi Granger aspiring to make it big in New York as a fashion designer. Her
father didn’t want her to go speaking of unpleasant things that he’s heard has
happened in the Big Apple but she follows her dream and goes to find her way.
But when she gets there her first hopes at becoming a designer is corrupted
when doors start to close in her face, she gets a job as a receptionist at a
design house. She falls for a junior designer at the design house named Bruce,
and he breaks her heart by leading her on just to steal her work and pass off
as his own.
My
personal reaction to this was that Bruce, the guy who Sammi falls for, is a
totally deceptive man. I see it as him taking advantage of the youth and
naivety of the girl when she believed he was trustworthy. I believe the author’s
intent was to set a scene for the main character to fall in love with one of her
best friends but feel like she can’t trust him. As for organizational patterns
she uses a lot of cause and effect throughout what I’ve read in the story. There’s
some spatial organization thrown in there also.
