Explosion is significant to the story because Robbie Washington died in the beginning of the book in a car explosion. The whole story is about how Andy has to cope with the death of Rob in the explosion and the pain he feels from it.

Friendship is significant to the story because without friendship, Andy would not have been able to deal with the whole situation at all. When the accident happened, all the friends were in the car. Andy’s friends really tried to help him after the accident and tried to make sure that he didn't do anything stupid.

Beer is significant to the story because beer was the cause of the accident in the first place. When Andy and his friends were in the car they were all drinking and their drunken state caused them to get in a crash and Rob died.

Girlfriend is significant to the story because Andy’s girlfriend, Keisha, helped him to cope with the death of Rob and helped keep him sane. Without Keisha Andy definitely would not have made it.

Love is significant to the story because love is what helped Andy. Love is also what Andy craved and what would have helped him through if he could of loved back.

Tigers is significant to the story because that was the name of the basketball team that Andy and Rob were on. Basketball was the reason that Andy and Rob were best friends and the reason they got in the crash because it happened on the way home from a basketball game.

Family is significant to the story because Andy is always having a tough time with his mom and dad. If he had gotten along better with his family the whole situation would have been much easier for him. His parents also never came to any of his basketball games and his father always though he was a failure.

Pain is significant to the story because it is the main outcome of the accident. Pain also causes Andy to kill himself in the end and pain was what Andy had to learn to overcome.

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;">Talking is significant to the story because it was what Andy really needed to do to keep his sanity. When he was in the most pain he had no one to talk to and it led to his death. Talking could have saved his life.

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;">Forgiveness is significant to the story because the whole story Andy was concerned that he would never get forgiveness from Rob. He blamed the whole accident on himself. The lack of forgiveness was what led to the most of the pain.
