Girlllll … your body, your choice. This man is TRASH!

This book is wild. It’s day to day life of four women. But like they aren’t interesting or exciting. And then, bam, the twin sister’s boyfriend is an arms dealer and he’s murdered. And like 7 hours later the non-dead boyfriend sister is just back at her boring ass job talking to her boring ass fiancé.

If you're a retired cop in a bestselling book, then you are FAT! And the author will remind you ... often!

We are DNFing, which kills my soul. But this is boring.

I am very close to DNF. There are moments that are interesting. But for the most part ... I find her inspiring, but her life is pretty run of the mill.

To be fair I am at the portion where she is at like a blindness skills school and that is a little more interesting.

My mom tried to have the birds and the bees talk with me once. I was mortified. But at least it wasn't at a breakfast diner with a bra involved. Phew

I am not pregnant or anything. I just came across a bunch of Harlequin pregnancy romances and I am fascinated.

“When.... someone really hears you without passing judgment on you, without trying to take responsibility for you, without trying to mold you, it feels damn good! ... When I have been listened to and when I have been heard, I am able to reperceive my world in a new way and to go on.“ -Carl Rogers
