"I'm so brainwashed by the patriarchy and society's heteronormative expectations that I don't even know how to answer your question."

I'M IN LOVE WITH ALICE!!!!!!!!!!!! to put this in a random conversation is so me argh this book is perfect. I just want to lock my arms in hers and take her to a protest

"“Am I? Or perhaps I was here first and it's you who is too in this equation.”"

Caterpillar rocks

"“You're the bloody Alice,” he says as I stand, too, and try not to look at his cock. There's been a whole lot of that since I arrived here, a lot of staring at the ceiling or the walls or a man's hardened nipples instead of his junk."

haaaaa man I'm loving it, I don't want it to end

"And I am beyond determined to be better than half the girls I read about."

yesss that's my girl right here. she's talking about being a strong character, more than just snark and stubbornness. Yeah you go, girl

"I expect more fussing out of the men, but it's like, as soon as I tell them no, they go back to their food and stop staring at me like I'm the second coming of Jesus."

I'm really enjoying the sassyness of it all. the character is young and she acts young and thinks young - it feels really good. Refreshing, really, when most heroines are oh sooooo matureee. I can see myself saying some of what she says

"Where are all the ugly blokes, huh?"

hhaahha asking the important questions
