Lines I loved:
Lark Creek was the backwash of fashion. It took them a long time to accept there what everyone could see by their TV’s was OK anywhere else.
It made Jess ache inside to watch his dad grab the little ones to his shoulder, or lean down and hug them. It seemed to him that he had been thought too big for that since the day he was born.
It was the beginning of a new season in his life, and he chose deliberately to make it so.
Gary Fulcher could go to you-know-where and warm his toes.
Even a prince may be a fool.
All the way home in the sunshine Miss Edmunds told funny stories about going to college one year in Japan, where all the boys had been shorter than she, and she hadn’t known how to use the toilets.
They weren’t crying for Leslie. They were crying for themselves. Just themselves.
Jess knew; but still, but still, at the bus stop he looked up, half expecting to see her running up across the field.
He could hear the sounds of the whispers ...more
