Sophie's World #7

The last chapter Albert wrote for Hilde reminded me of Descartes’ evil genius theory. In that last chapter basically everything is crazy –people are acting very strange and impossible things are happening. Let me just say that the Joanna and Jeremy thing was so, so weird. They were making out and taking off each other’s clothes in full view of their friends and parents! Anyway, the evil genius theory says that there is a god-like being that creates a world of illusion and deception. So basically you doubt everything, including your very existence. Sophie and Alberto know that they are in a story, but they are trapped. This reminded me of both The Adjustment Bureau and Inception because in both movies, there are forces against the main characters that are trying to control them and put strange obstacles in their paths.

I also have six pages left of the book that I am excited to finish. I really hope it will be a good ending or else I will be disappointed.
