Towards the end of book one, I didn't really care for Bigger. He had accidentally killed an innocent girl. He had killed because of his fears, his nerves, and if caught, what people would think had happened. He took advantage of a drunken rich white girl, and his consequences would later be determined. Of course, many thoughts went through his mind, a few being: where would he hide her? Should he hide her? Should he run away and try to escape?. All these thoughts ran through his mind and all he could think of was to lie. If bigger had just hidden under the girls bed, and hadn't tried to hide, he wouldn't be in this mess.
After reading most of book two, I practically hate Bigger. I feel that what he had done and what he did to cover up his crime was 100% wrong. Bigger has been taking advantage of the fact that Mr. and Mrs. Dalton believed every word of his story.. There was no reason to drag Bessie into his mess, and there was certainly no reason to kill her. What he had done was very selfish of him. He couldv'e simply left Bessie at her apartment and not have told her anything. With Bigger killing Bessie, I have lost all respect for him.
