2.0

The book ends with the main character asking Daisy to run away with him, she says no even though she asked him to run away with her three pages ago because I don't fucking know, bitches be crazy, and he loses her mouth organ, which she's vaguely unhappy about because she wanted to show her boyfriend that she could play it. And the book ends on the mouth organ. It's not a euphemism. He left an actual mouth organ that they won at the fair in the taxi and she's mildly disappointed about it. There. Now you don't have to read this book unless you're dying to know what his thoughts on sonnets are.
