Journal Entry #3 & 4 **__ Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde __** Robert Louis Stevenson I am starting to put this whole thing together but I still am not into this book. I really wish the author could have chosen easier words for me to understand so I did not have to keep looking everything up. At this point I am starting to understand that Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde are actually one person. This whole time I just thought he created a monster when the monster was actually himself like the Incredible Hulk or something. Dr. Jekyll actually thinks he can control Mr. Hide and have him come and go as he pleases but it almost seems like he might be afraid of him that is why he has him getting everything in his will. I think the relationship between the two men is so weird. You have the young smart scientist that wants to drink this stuff to be transformed into Mr. Hide for some unknown reason, and then you have this old scary looking man that commits these bad crimes. Why would a smart scientist want to transform into something like this? My thoughts are he is hiding something from his past and when he turns into Mr. Hide, the evil side of his personality; he does not care what he is dose. At this point in the novel I feel the evil side Mr. Hide is going to take over Dr. Jekyll and hurt Mr. Utterson. Mr. Utterson is getting so close to figuring out what is actually going on in Dr. Jekyll’s house or laboratory and Mr. Hide will try to take charge. This really does remind me of the Incredible Hulk. This book is so unrealistic a far fetched. I will never read a book like this again. It was so hard to figure out and even now that it is making sense I do not like the way it was written. I am sorry but this was not a book for me!
