The author made an interesting choice with the narrative arc of this series to start book 2 where she does. I found this a pretty strong installment, with more nuance and emotional depth than I recall from her other books.

Quotes by Anna Broadway  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“The problem with many Jesus freaks is that we claim to 'build our house on a rock,' but when a storm comes we have such confidence in the building that all our focus is on the house. As if surety comes from construction, not from the foundation.”
Anna Broadway, Sexless in the City: A Memoir of Reluctant Chastity

“What to one person is common courtesy is to another tender words of life - and by the same token, what one person intends to show as great affection may be to his beloved an irrelevant show of frivolousness compared to the kindness of simply doing the laundry sometimes.”
Anna Broadway, Sexless in the City: A Memoir of Reluctant Chastity

“Grace not only embraces you at your most shameful, it's the most effective antidote to sin.”
Anna Broadway, Sexless in the City: A Memoir of Reluctant Chastity

“Look at them leaving in droves despite knowing they will be welcomed with restraint in those strange lands because they do not belong, knowing they will have to sit on one buttock because they must not sit comfortable lest they be asked to rise and leave, knowing they will speak in dampened whispers because they must not let their voices drown those of the owners of the land, knowing they will have to walk on their toes because they must not leave footprints on the new earth lest they be mistaken for those who want to claim the land as theirs. Look at them leaving in droves, arm in arm with loss and lost, look at them leaving in droves.”
NoViolet Bulawayo, We Need New Names

“... She had the same air about her that I had hated in James, the assumption that those of us who found ourselves floundering in life needed only to pull ourselves together, forgetting that they'd been born in the lifeboat while some of had been dropped into the fathomless depths without so much as a rope to grab hold of.”
Louise Hare, Miss Aldridge Regrets
