“I got worried.”
“But we didn’t think there was anything to worry about.”
“I know. I just…no matter what I do I can’t stop thinking about you.”

OMG <3<3

“You killed Rod because he didn’t die,”

Noah sure has some of the best lines in this book. :-)

THAT is the killer?! Gosh, I didn't see that coming at all....

“How was Sister Act?”
“We haven’t had time to watch it,” my mother replied. “We’ve been busy solving—”
“Sightseeing,” I interjected.
“Oh, that’s right, sightseeing,” my mother repeated.
“Did you make it to Universal Studios?”
“No.”
“Disneyland?”
“No—”
Knowing this could go on forever I said, “We went to The Griffith Observatory.”

And that was why I’d never told Javier why I wouldn’t go out with him. I never wanted to hear that pity in his voice. I didn’t want to be that poor guy. I glanced up at my mother, but I couldn’t read her face. She slipped back into the kitchen.

TELL HIM!! Jesus Christ! Just tell him.

This feels like Lois Lane and Superman all over again.

“Thank you for coming by. I appreciate it.”
“I’m on my way over to Tim’s anyway.” That felt weird. He’d wanted to talk to me, but he had a boyfriend so what was there to say?


LOL, this is like a beautiful soap opera.

“I don’t regret your father,” my mother said. “And I wouldn’t change a thing. Maybe you need to find a man like your father. Someone just a bit dull.”
That made me smile a little. “I’ll keep that in mind.”

“I think your father and I went to see that on a date. They were all such beautiful, young people,” she said. I knew she meant James Dean, Sal Mineo and Natalie Wood. “And they’re all gone now.”
I almost made a flip remark about dying young and leaving an attractive corpse, but I think all three had been pretty mangled by death.

“He didn’t say what he wanted, did he?”
“No. He just asked if you were coming in and I said I didn’t think so, then he rented The Great Mouse Detective and left.”


Now that's cute :-))
