The Soloist (final)

The Soloist...This is by far the most smile summonning book that I have ever read. From beggining to end, Steve is there for Nathaniel and trys to help him in every way that he can. Although Steve could not cure Nathaniels mental illness, he cured his lonesome by becoming his best friend. It was a good thing that Steve realized curng him was almost impossible, because becoming his friend was so much better for Nathaniel. A story about helping someone is my favorite. It cannot get any better than that.

The Soloist definetely brought up many modern day issues. I cannot beieve the fact that Nathaniel remained homeless for so long. That is proposterous. This goes to show how people only socialize with "normal" human beings. We need more people like Steve who would be willing to do things out of the "ordinary." 

Also, this brings up some medical issues. At first, nobody was willing to prescribe Nathaniel medicine. They branded him"uncurable." We need to start researching into cures for mental disorders because a sufficient amount of people suffer from them.

I am happy that Nathaniel finally agreed to live in the apartment despite the confrontation him and Lopez had. Another thing I liked was the growth of an irregular friendship. This is a good moral that the readers have learned. Befriending people that normally would not have any friends is a great deed.

In conclusion, The Soloist is a book of social positives and negatives. Readers will retain great morals and maybe a slight tear.
