review 1: Gentlemen is a suspenseful, creepy, and realistic story centered on the friendship among 4 high school students. They are Micheal, Tommy, Mixer, and Bones. It is the relationships among the 4 kids that moves the whole story, and the theme of the book is the friendships between Micheal and his friends. Gentleman shows the factors that bond friends together or tear them apart. Micheal, Mixer and Bones have known each other since they were in elementary school, Tommy is the last one to joined the group. But Tommy is actually the one who connects Micheal, Mixer, and Bones together. Without him, they wouldn’t be so close and friendly. So when Tommy goes missing, the other 3 guys slowly begin to doubt and keep an eye on one another. Micheal is the narrator of the book, so his ... morechanges in his perspectives to Mixer and Bones are shown the most as the plot advances. Overall, it’s a story that can really draw readers in and make them think with the characters. It’s overall a good novel with closely knit plot. I enjoyed reading this book.
review 2: This book shows you how juvenile delinquent teenagers who are very close friends are distraught when one of them is missing for a week, and how their paranoia gets the torn apart, this book has many layers I think and I absolutely loved this book! Especially the ending when the main character finally cut off the one person who he should've left a long time ago; his psycho friend, and this book tells you how these friends were never really connected seeing as what happened. The book was filled with ideas, justice, and growing up and realizing the consequences of your acts.Because if you want the punishment that you deserve is it really punishment or and idea? Is a crime an idea or is it real? This book answers this and more because friendships can bring you forward or drag you down and all because secrets were hidden and a pure intellectual misunderstanding. And of course friendship and trust, because no one can bear the guilt of betraying a close friend but justice and truth aren't pretty. less
