The conflict in Twisted was a Man Vs. Self conflict. Tyler, the main charcter, clearly has serious emotional issues that evidently become prominent from the beginning of the story. The fact alone that Tyler took time and risked a criminal record by defacing his school, says that he was desperate for someone to notcie him, for any type of attention. Tyler's home-life is another conflict. Tyler's father is not only border-line alcoholic, he is verbally abusive. (MIKE M)
 * Conflict: **


 * Resolution (ending): **

The book ends with Tyler making a number of reckless and irrational decisions. Tyler's emotions reach their boiling point near the end of the book because of his father, his best friend Yoda dating his sister, and most importantly, the recent suspicion that he is guilty of posting revealing pictures of Bethany on the internet. It is only within the last few pages of the book that Tyler finally talks things out with his family that he calms down and life for Tyler, as the reader knows it, returns to normal. (MIKE M)
