Kindle Notes & Highlights
“That’s funny. I liked you better when I thought you hadn’t groomed my little sister and then fucked her over.”
SHOTS FIRED
I want to know more about Winter Valentine. Like when that divorce is happening.
ME TOO
“It’s not. The divorce papers are stashed in my car. On my way out here, I picked them up. I’m a private person. I don’t need my messy divorce to be dinner conversation.”
AHHHHHHHHHH ITS HAPPENING EVERYBODY STAY CALM
“Theo, honey, the question any good dad would ask himself now is: what are you going to do to make her feel less overwhelmed?”
“I could fucking bury whoever made you believe you’re as unlovable as you seem to think.”
every comment is that I’m crying but I am
“I reckon she’ll wanna spend a little extra time getting to know her new grandchild.”
HARVEY DROPPING THE BOMB. What a savage. He’s acting as if he isn’t dating his deceased wives sister on the down low.
“Watch your fucking tone when you’re talking to the mother of my child.”
This is what I live for
“I just told you I’m not okay, so you ask me out? If I didn’t want so desperately for you to leave me alone, I’d ask what leap of logic brought you to the conclusion that this was the way to go.”
You go girl. Men are so dumb.
“What’s happening is Miss Independent met the treat-her-like-a-princess guy, and she’s freaking out.”
OMG
“He said, ‘Mom, I met her.’ And I said, ‘Who?’” Loretta’s lips curve up, her eyes taking on a faraway look. “He said, ‘The woman I’m going to marry one day.’”
No joke im actually sobbing
“Now get out of my way, Kip. I want to go home and be with my girls.”
MY. GIRLS.
“Hey, Theo?” I whisper, reaching across to dust my fingers over his forehead and into his hair. “Yeah?” “You’re not an interloper. You’re her dad.”
Why did this make me cry
“Except me. I’m going to show up for her. Every goddamn time. So Kip, you’re fired. I used to like you, but I no longer respect you. And Geoff, if I could fire you twice, I would. You fucking suck.”
AS YOU SHOULD
“I can’t believe you married a guy with a personalized license plate. That might be the worst part of it all.”
Red flag
I’ve seen you sow some wild oats over the years.
Thank you to the office for helping me understand this
The woman everyone told me was cold, mean, and unavailable is so thoroughly mine. And that’s special. That’s everything.
“Hope you’re ready to do this dad thing again, because there’s another Theo doppelgänger on the way,” nothing is more important than us.
I need more of them.
