The Misfits part 2

The first part of the Misfits went very slowly and it was hard to get into. This half of the book was a little faster paced but not much. In the second half of the book the misfits create the No Name party. Their platform is no name calling and they created posters with names they had been called and red slashes through them. DuShawn decides not head this party and that leaves Addie as the candidate for the No Name party. In the end they end up losing the election but on the upside Addie and DuShawn become a couple, Bobby finds a girl, and Joe finds a boy. So the book ends with the group pretty much all coupled up and they are not called names anymore.
I did not like how there was a happy ending where everything was nicely tied up, it’s just not realistic. When I was beginning to read the book I thought that kids could really relate to these characters since they seem like actual people but happy endings like in the Misfits doesn’t happen often. For a book that emphasizes not fitting in it is ironic that this book fits to the fairy tale, unrealistic mode of fiction- everyone gets their happy ending.
