This book is really interesting to some extent. I have really enjoyed the progression of Matt along with some other characters. To me he is a really interesting character because he threw out the book he goes from believing he is a normal boy, to being treated just above an animal, and then back to becoming an almost a normal boy. He has really showed us that the worlds opinion no longer matters to him even though he knows he can never really be treated the same way because he is a clone. The most interesting thing I ever noticed about Matt was that he knows what is wrong with El Patron and how he is a cruel and demonic person, but yet deep down he loves him. This to me was really odd but also quite interesting because Matt knows that El Patron is an evil person whom is using the market of Opium and slaves toake him richer and richer. Another point to this was how different Matt and El Patron are even though he is an exact clone. Matt is a caring person whom although he is a clone still generally feels for the people whom are "eejits". People like Rosa who treated him so cruelly yet he still wants to try to help her. This really shows a lot about Matt and to me it really showed that he is nothing at all like El Patron. I think this really shows that Matt is an incredible character that has a very odd personality.
Nice post. I agree with your statement this it is rather odd that Matt loves El Patron despite his cruelty, but one could argue that Matt, technically, is the exactly same person, except with very different personalities. A thought-provoking post!
