personal reaction= CREEPINESS TO THE MAX!
a) because it makes everything more creepy- just the concept of being home alone and then hearing a car drive into your driveway when there isn't supposed to be anyone there scares the crap out of me.
b) Connie's character draws the reader in because she's so plausible and real and unreal at the same time. She cant get along with her mom, all her relatives like her older sister better, her dad is never there. She's also popular and beautiful and lies constantly to her parents.
c) i just want to say i am never answering the door when I'm home alone again unless i know for sure who it is. and i think that might very well have been the purpose Joyce Carol Oats was driving at.
d) i don't know- i wish i had never read it, it makes me feel physically nauseous.
e) i think they left in the car and the CREEPY guy raped her and then he probably dropped her home after threatening her that she couldn't tell anyone. and she most likely never did.
f) well, he's so important to the story because without him there is no story. but also i have no idea how he got that way. it is sick and disgusting and it scare the crap out of me that such men exist. and like i said before it's going to take alot of convincing to get me to open the door both if i'm home alone and even more so if i'm home with my little sister.

I don't think that he dropped her at home...I do think that he raped her, but after that bruitally killed her in some obcene way and left her body in some field in some godforsaken place...
OVERPROTECTIVE BIG SISTERS!!!!!!!
I don't think he ever dropped her off at home. not after all the stuff he said to het her to leave willingly.
