So we're told in the beginning of the novel, that we are "aloud" to skip around this novel. Peter assumed in this case it doesn't really matter. To be honest Peter did skip the introduction, and started reading on page three. After getting very little out of the first chapter, and figured it was in a sense taking advantage of the book, Peter went back to read the intro. Later Peter realized that Peter had less of an idea of the first chapter, than did after reading the introduction.
So taking this into consideration, for each time the text would change in font, Peter realized the topic would change, so Peter started skipping the less bold areas of the book, and would later go back to them. Little did Peter know that it wouldn't help much at all anyway, as Peter still found himself somewhat lost after trying to compress information that would still find a way to be irrelevant to each other.
The one thing Peter didn't like about this novel was the use of detail. Peter felt all the extra detail used covers what we're expected to find. This house is meant to be a mystery, Peter can see that, however, Peter felt it would make it a lot easier if we didn't need to read about Mr Reston's biography. All the sidetracking gets a little irritating after a while and forces me get somewhat frustrated and lost.

Hey--what about the third person part of the assignment?
Haha... Sorry, Peter had until 12:00am to finish the assignment, leaving Peter with 7 minutes to complete the last short essay. Peter corrected his mistake.
