I Wonder...#3

This book hops a lot, and it's honestly a little hard to follow. Obama doesn't really describe some vital details about what is going around him. How old is he during this point in time? What happened in between chapters 3 and 4 that made the story jump so much with no such warning? Some of it gets left out, leaving the reader a little flustered. He sometimes gives general descriptions, such as "young adult" or, "past high school age," but it's kind of hard to figure out sometimes with no context clues. Obama, at this point in the book, is very questioning of the life he had known his entire childhood, and is figuring out life very quickly. Then again, what person who has just been dropped off in the real world all on their own wouldn't? As the book goes on it gets a little easier to figure out, but still. Who leaves out details like that? Silly President.
