Which best describes Marcus' tone in this excerpt from Little Brother? The deal with my parents was that I'd eat breakfast with them every morning and talk about the projects I was doing. They liked that I was reading Kerouac. It had been a favorite book of both of theirs, and it turned out there was already a copy on the bookcase in my parents' room. My dad brought it down, and I flipped through it. There were passages marked up with pen, dog-eared pages, notes in the margin. My dad had really loved this book. It made me remember a better time, when my Dad and I had been able to talk for five minutes without shouting at each other about terrorism, and we had a great breakfast talking about the way that the novel was plotted, all the crazy adventures. angry reflective critical excited

Answer:

reflective

Step-by-step explanation:

hey there,

< Marcus is reflecting/thinking about the past and how much better it was then now when he gets flashbacks. A book he is given makes him realize that. >

Sorry for the bad explanation, but I hope this helped! Feel free to ask anything else.

It seems like Marcus is regretting the fights with his dad. He seems a little sorrowful when he talks about his family. He is full of bitterness and is rueful.
