Lucy throws a pie in Jacks face and is rewarded by being given the afternoon off and told to go Apple picking with her friends. Because logic.

Not Lucy throwing pie at Jack when she realizes/learns his family owns Java junction and that’s why they moved to Briar Glen lol

I love Lucy’s annoyance with pumpkin spice. I feel it

I love that Lucy and her mom live in a purple Victorian house with a cat named pancake. I love that their coffee shop is a house turned coffee shop

Reasons to like Jack Harper: he’s cute and he likes to read

Jack and his crayon-green eyes 😂

So it was a roadtrip bc Dex is scared of flying. Got it:

So like… was the principal was fine with Phoebe missing nearly two weeks of school or??? Bc it was made clear that Phoebe was a problem kid bc #grief but that being understanding was only gonna go so far

So we’re not gonna find out how Benji dies? Just that it’s a cosmically unfair accident that happened on a Thursday?

273 pages in and we are once again reminded that it’s bad to open someone else’s mail

Benji is his brother. Benji is dead.

August William Dexter is on Dex’s ID. Who tf is August and who tf is benji if he’s not benji

OF COURSE PHOEBE FALLS OFF A CLIFF 🙄

“I have the bizarre urge to thank you” - Violet, post sex. Where getting a condom to Dex finishing was a grand total of three paragraphs

Was his dick that good?

Dude Dex how do you not know what a moonpie is? (And points taken off for Violet as a character for her sub par explanation of what a moon pie is)

Violet doesn’t really know what a passenger princess is but is “ninety percent sure it’s not an insult” - mind you, she’s TWENTY SIX. Like ???

“Idgaf about Catalina (basically) but it’s all about CLOSURE & she deserves closure. So sure let’s take a two day detour to go out of our way to an animal sanctuary in Utah because the fourteen year old wants to meet elephants and giraffes” (paraphrasing Dex)

So Dex hates cinnamon rolls. Yet he plucked one from the bakery box that the girls brought home because the bakery items were chosen by the fourteen year old. And he (I’m assuming) could have picked something else since there was no indication that the box was otherwise empty and void of other bakery items.

Someone explain the logic to me like I’m five, I’m begging you

“Grief is fickle, overwhelming, rude, uncomfortable, and, frankly, impossible”

“You’re fourteen and your life kinda sucks right now.”

And why couldn’t anyone tell me this at 22 when I joined the Dead Dad Club 🙄😭

The 14 year old finally has a wake-up call & realizes she’s been treating her sister like shit for a year?!?!

Dex had friends. He had feelings. Now he’s back to being closed off & calling out Phoebe for being an asshole.

(Phoebe pulls the dead dad card. Dex calls her out on it and reminds her that Violet lost him too)

I’m trying to enjoy Violet’s amusement of a tattooed man flirting with Dax on a gay bar, I really am. But all I can think about is “How did a fourteen year old make her way into a bar at all?”

We’re counting the mention of “mail fraud” toward the “opening someone else’s mail is a felony!” tallies, right?

Saying that a tattoo of someone’s handwriting that’s “impossible to transcribe without being right on top of it” gives off the vibe of using big words just because you can

It does not make me interested in what Dex’s tattoo says

“Vintage lesbians” that is all the description we get of a photo in a couples hotel (where Dex OBVIOUSLY booked 2 rooms. But they only had one available. Because 2 adults and one teen in one hotel room)

Gavin = Dex’s friend who supposedly interrogated Violet via a strange phone call pre-road trip? Weird way to just drop a character in our lap?

Violet told Dex she was bi (“coming out” doesn’t feel like the right phrase? Violet’s written like she’s already out but told Dex the way she did because she is genuinely that awkward of a person) all because she asked Dex what led him to work at Sequest (Non-profit organization, focus on LGBTQ community, cannot remember in what capacity. Maybe helping the youth? I dunno & I don’t wanna dig for an answer)

Violet came out as bi (Dex’s workplace is a nonprofit that helps out LGBTQ community - forgot in what capacity)

Dex calling Violet out on “desperate attempts to please Phoebe”

The broody man who says very little is spot on with this
