Blaze By, Stephen King

Blaze was going to go and kidnap the baby, when George told him he need to think about where he is going to keep the baby. Where are you going to keep the baby how are you going to feed, clothe, and give the baby fresh diapers. George then gave Blaze the idea to rob the Mom-N-Pop Store, that they used to go into all the time. They talk about Blazes childhood, Blaze's real name is Clayton Blaisdell Jr. He was big for age, and was pretty advanced for his age before he went to the first grade he could read. When he went to school everyone knew his father was verbally and physically abusive to him. Blaze ended up becoming slow because his father threw him down the steps four times. He had to go to the hospital and his father lost custody of him, Blaze then had to go to a foster home. He always felt a void when he was in these Foster homes, he felt he filled this void when he meet George Rackley. Blaze goes to rob the store he end up forgetting to wear something over his face just like George told him. Blaze ends up getting the money and leaving and went back to the shack. Blaze explains to George he forgot to wear the mask and it makes George pissed. George leaves Blaze all by himself in the shack to think about whats going on. 

It gets better,  I was surprised to hear what happened to Blaze when he was younger and thats what made him the way he is. It kind of surprises me by Blaze's stupidity, he doesn't realize that George is a pigment of his imagination. He can make him do whatever he wants, i started to see that Blaze needs someone to act mean to him in his life. That is what he grew up on and thats what he meant by when he left his father he felt a void. Then when he meet George the void was filled, he needed someone in his life to treat him  like his father did to feel comfortable. Which is sad for someone to need someone to belittle them to feel normal.

In the first few pages its about to thieves George and Blaze, they have been stealing together for a while. The book starts of with Blaze going to steal a car to ride around with, and George telling him what kind of car to take. It snowing pretty heavy out and George tell Blaze to take a truck, but not one with too many stickers. The car would be to easy to notice if it had many stickers. Then we find out George is really dead and he is just in Blazes imagination, because all Blaze ever really had was George. George and Blaze had this very unique relationship, George was the brain and Blaze was the muscle. George was always very harsh on Blaze he would always call him stupid or say mean things to him. George came up with the idea for Blaze to steal a baby, so it can't id you and it won't try to run away. 

Im surprised the way the book is starting to go so far, Blaze is listening to voices that are in his head. Of people who he used to steal with, he just stole a car which makes it more intresting. He is Driving around town with a stolen vehicle, listening to voice. What also is making this novel good is that, he is about to steal a baby all on his own, with no george. i cant wait to see what other bright ideas Blaze has to come up with.

I left off last time where the main character was emotional because she was not gettign the help she needed from the guys in Lightowers' office wasn't cooperating like she needed. It began again she went and did some searching on her own, she had a guy from jail who was already arrested for hacking computers. Lieutenant had him hack all of Lightowers' files and his email accounts, they get stuck inside of the office because the new CEO comes into the office. While they are stuck in the office the criminal thought about turning her in to the CEO. What she was doing was a big crime, and she was talked to by a higher office to not make this case personal. 

Im glad it has gotten better, the books plot is getting bigger and better. It keeps you on your toes to look out for a twist. I was really surprised with the author choosing her to break in with a criminal to hack all of the files. I was also surprised that the CEO came in it made me think hard what was going to happen again. The criminal turning her in is like every other movie or book with an officer trying to get what they need using a criminal.

Where i began to read again the Lieutenant was talking to everyone in her office about getting leads to the case. She Is still not alright she is still covered in smoke and smug, and she is still shaking. She talks to San Francisco's chief medical officer, her best friend made her cry because Charlotte Lightower was two months pregnant. When the lieutenant gets home she takes a shower, while in the shower she begins to analyze her day. The Au Pair with the long blonde hair never returned which now started to register in her mind. She had a bundle under her arm which was bothering her now she figured out it was the Lightowers' baby. Then it begins to talk from the killers perspective the lady who was turning the corner was, cutting her hair. She took Caitlin(the missing baby), her partner in crime Malcolm came to the hotel where she was staying. He is mad with Michelle because she took the baby every Police officer will be looking for this baby. Malcolm wants Michelle to kill the baby and get rid of her in the morning. The boss of Michelle and Malcolm calls where they are staying and asks them to kill again from my understanding. Then Lieutenant Lindsay went to Mr. Lightowers' office and find out any information. It was very hard to get information from the people she was having a meeting with. 

This book is getting more exciting as it goes on, we figured out who the killers are but we did not find out their MO. Now that Michelle is changing her whole look the readers feel like they got away with murder. Then you as a reader is stuck wondering what is going on in with the two killers are they going to murder someone else.

The book starts of with an extreme plot, In the beginning i though this book would be a drag. It started of with this lady taking a normal jog, then a house with people inside blew-up. Then the lady who was jogging which was Lieutenant Boxer, saw it happen right in front of her. She ran inside of the house to save who ever made it inside of the home, she managed to save a little boy. She saw that two people where lying on the floor dead in one room which almost made her pass out. When she saved the child she figured out that it was an execution of this millionaire, a man named Morton Lightower. When they realized all this, the sister of the family came over and said their was a baby left inside the burning. Where i ended off the Firemen couldn't find where the little girl was, so we left off not being able to find this six-month old baby. 

This is a good way for a book to start of people dying, and houses being blown up in the suburbs. My only problem was the beginning was a little to cliche, the police officer running in front of the house that is about to blow, and she stops right in front of it. Then she goes inside and is kind of regretting that she did. Other than that it was a good way to start of the book missing people killers on the lose. This story only has one way to go up not down, it has so much action it can carry me through the book.
