Status Updates From Phoebe Berman's Gonna Lose ...

‘anticipation of an event can be worse than the event itself. “Anticipation is just another word for uncertainty,” she had said. “It’s a stretch of time where you have very little control. And the longer you have to anticipate something, the more time you have to prepare yourself for the worst.”

‘I’ve done this before. This thing where, in a moment of courage like the one I had last night, I overestimate myself. But I always run in the other direction the moment it becomes real.’

No one can convince me that Phoebe isn’t Brooke and Jonathan isn’t Connor. Bye.

Absolutely devouring this book! At first Phoebe annoyed me, she felt immature and a little wacky, but I started picturing her as Jess from New Girl and that helped. Finally made it to some resolutions on some paths for her and I hope Phoebe loses it with the right person!!
