The book Strange Bedpersonns by Jennifer Crusie tells the story of Tess Newhart, who learns after her grandmother's death that her father has left her family a great deal of money. Tess was not expecting the inheritance because she used to live frugally with a substantial amount of debt. Tess decides to give away most of the assets and make the rest liquid in order to pay off both debts. During the reading process, one can assume that the protagonist's motivation is to reduce debt and work on building a career and being financially independent. However, in the second chapter of the novel, Tess relents in the decision. Her family and friends have made some suggestions and one of them suggests that she should give away a certain land. The protagonist does not want to follow that suggestion since she has given this land to her grandfather. After thinking on the matter, the author continues the narration of her actions, which illustrates that you can find motivation in good advice from those closest to you. For example, this section might be telling you to trust your instincts despite what others might say about your choice. In conclusion, Jennifer Crusie's novel delves into the beautiful world of family relationships and the problem with lack of communication. In today's world, many people turn to technology to express their opinions, yet they don't realize that it does not allow for an emotional response like body language and a person's voice. Therefore, while Tess struggles with feeling that she cannot trust her fiancé, the author seamlessly interweaves discussions from Tess, her parents, and various people in her life. All the interactions show that sometimes in our world a person may sense things before they are verbally expressed. In conclusion, the book teaches that not all advice is malicious, but that we need to engage others to discern what we truly need.
