I am reading a book called Crashback by John Coy. The name characters name is Miles and a lot of his problems i feel like i can relate to in my life. One thing is Miles doesn't really have a close relationship or the relationship that he would hope for with his dad. The same thing is with me, me and my dad often don't really get along so our relationship is kinda on edge sometimes. I think Miles is lonely with how close he and his family are. Hes not very close to his mom and his dad you already know about. But another thing that we both share is a way to escape from all of that. We both use sports as a way to kinda get away from reality and relax with doing something we love. Miles even said on page 16 "suddenly the crowd, my parents, and the cartwheels in my stomach disappear." When Miles said that i thought of it like how it is with me he has so much annoying things going on in reality. School work, family, girls, and even friends. But when Miles is on the football field he escapes and there is nothing to think about but doing his job for the team which happens to be something he loves.
