Quotes:
“I know, but
she gets me to do things and afterwards I’m wondering how she did it… It’s some
form of brainwashing.”
“I think
Miranda buys books rather than compulsively eats. At thirty-eight, she’s divorced, and I guess
it was books, food or cats and books won.”
“‘How long
have you been together?’ ‘Almost thirty years.’
‘Christ you don’t get that for murder,’”
“This is the
holy grail. This is what women really
want… Of course they’re grown up fairy tales.
Do you see many suited and booted billionaires coming in here?”
“He takes a
seat, and his legs splay apart in a wide-legged stance. You know like some men do on the bus? As if their package needs DHL heavy delivery
options.”
My
Review:
More bawdy
and irreverent humor from the comically gifted Andie M. Long. She is one of my favorite guilty pleasures. I smirked and snorted more than a few times
during this fun and quick read with mom Dora tossing a full blown tantrum and
running off with the savings for an expensive vacation. Her impetuous behavior, amusing shenanigans,
and curious experiments were more than entertaining. Poor Tim tries to make improvements on his
end by taking cues from the Fifty Shades of alpha moves, with confusing
results. I cannot wait to see what Ms.
Long dreams up with next.
