Favorite Quotes:
“I’d always
thought it funny that the US government took a recess, like little kids took
recess I primary school. I imagined the
Speaker of the House hanging upside down on monkey bars and the majority leader
shaking down junior senators for lunch money.”
“Musicians are
like lightbulbs, they burn hot and bright, but can’t be screwed more than
once.”
“If he were an
actual lightbulb, he’d be a twenty watt fluorescent. Hard to look at – because he was so pretty –
but too dim to make a noticeable difference in any given room.”
“Just thinking
about him with someone else made me want to throw a month-long drama parade.”
“I don’t want
a beautiful week with you, I want a beautiful lifetime.”
My Review:
Penny Reid is
a master wordsmith. That is all I need
to say. I read three books and 568 pages
to complete this review and would do it all over again. Her writing is highly entertaining,
multi-layered, seamless, insightful, observant, crisp, witty, and all
absorbing. I enjoyed it so much, it was
hard to put my kindle down, so I took it everywhere. Her characters are complicated, intelligent,
and intense. I adored their clever
banter and verbal sparring. I was sad to
see those dreaded words “The End” but was very pleased with the
conclusion.
