'...each time his gaze moved toward her, she received a new, pleasing little bang of his interest.' Love that. And this book, tho I'm often wondering if I can actually like Jules. I can't exactly pinpoint why I don't like her... maybe because, if we'd known each other in high school, I'm afraid she wouldn't quite like me.

seriously furious at Betsy Wolf. you know, a little furious at Ash, too. I think they could so easily have seen Goodman for who he really was -- they could have forgiven him, but they had to SEE him. I would have been ok with forgiveness. I'm not ok with dissonance.

this book reads like one of those dense, quiet 90s movies full of bored privileged children, 'Heathers,' or that one with Demi Moore. Or it just reads like Jeffrey Eugenides. The first part is difficult; lots of re-reading to figure out who is who, and what their talent or distinguishing characteristic is. Ethan, the ugly one is the only easy character, he's pegged from page one. Slow but engaging reading.
