    Summary

    It started out as a club of ten, composed of five old ladies, two middle-aged women, one mid-20s married couple, and one Jason Peter Todd. The married couple had a fight during the first meeting, didn't talk during the second, and then never came again. One of the old ladies broke her hip and didn't return, either. That left the old lady quartet, the possible lesbian couple, and Jason to meet every Friday night, discussing the book of the month.

    He loved it.

     

    Jason joins a book club. This leads to more drama than expected.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I think if I had read this in my teens it would have changed me forever

    Instead I will just think about it all the time.

    (one of the best examples of messy human relationships I've ever had the honour of reading)

    This is the kind of Red Hood I believe in.

    Summary

    THE BATMAN CATCHES Jason stealing the tires off his car; after that Jason’s pressing a gun to his own temple and saying, the first step to redemption is to atone. It didn't always used to be like this. For a little while, maybe, in between these two, Jason was happy.

    People are always asking him if he misses it.

    OR

    Jason lives, dies, and starts a revolution. Featuring: gratuitous references to Fight Club.

    Summary

    Jason is so scared of the Joker that he can’t breathe when he thinks about him, can barely even stand, so he takes his former moniker of Red Hood and wears his face until his heart stops pounding.

    Guns remind him of his father, make him so sad and angry that he wants to die, so he carries those too. Explosions terrify him, so he plays with bombs, plants one in his helmet right where it will kill him if he goes off.
