The Memory Keeper's Daughter

Pages 203-262 quick sum up. On 203, Dr. Henry is still trying to connect with his son but only succeeds in making him angry. While his son runs off, Dr. Henry destroys the picture of his wife with the man that she cheated on him with. Then it's a new chapter and Dr. Henry's son is with his friend. They nearly get killed by a train, all by their own doing, and Duke, Dr. Henry's son's friend, decides to get Paul high. Paul loves it and they go back to his house and invite over a bunch of older guys. They all get high and the boys ruin Dr. Henry's picture room, where he develops all the pictures. Dr. Henry finds his son there the next morning and makes him clean it up all by himself. Then Dr. Henry sends the nurse a note saying he wants to see his daughter, making the nurse extremely mad and she refuses. Then there's an accident meeting and that's where I left off.

I learned the term silverfish. Silverfish is actually a type of goldfish, and in my book, it was used in likeness of dizziness. You know how some people see spots, or fairies, or something like that when they get dizzy or something? That's what this person was experiencing, except they see silverfish. I thought that was interesting because silverfish are so strange.
