Near the end of Personal Effects

I have read way more of the book personal effects and what is going on is pretty confusing and deep at the same time. It is confusing because the book was focusing on T.J. but then now it's talking about a man that is cheating on someone and it just overwhelming. Something that really effected Matt is that T.J. died while at war. He found out because people in army suites came by his house and gave him and his dad T.J.' clothes. Also Matt is disappointing his dad very much because Matt isn't doing good in school and he doesn't wan to go to the army. His dad is mad that he is not doing good because he wants Matt to go to College. Matt is going through rough times and he is starting to get very stressed because of this. That is all I have read about so far.

I think that the book is called "Personal Effects" because of all the things that Matt is going through, it is really effecting him in school and outside of school. Matt won't do good anywhere because all he can think of is T.J. and now since he is dead, it makes things ten times worse for him. Also Matt dad won't stop punching him around and hitting him "for fun". I think if i got constantly bothered and hit everyday, I would be more than mad because it would get irritating. I wouldn't be able to focus on anything if I knew I am going to get hit when I get home. Well that is why I think that the book is called "Personal Effects".
