Kindle Notes & Highlights
I’m pretty adept at this, suffocating things I don’t want to think about.
Must be nice , my brain needs to learn how to do that
It’s juicy gossip, which I can only conclude is horseshit.
Haha he's so rude
“Stacy, you know that family that lives across the river? The Farrows?”
Is he planning on asking that to everybody he meets !?
“It wasn’t an accident.” She whispers, her breath fogging the glass. “She killed herself.”
Oh
To be queer is to be less than a man, which is the worst flaw to have.
You’re lucky cancel culture wasn’t a thing in the 80s
“Dig what?” “A grave,” she says. “We killed our parents. Gotta hide the evidence.”
Haha I like her
“It’s Georgia. I just like George better, okay?” She sighs at me, annoyed. “It’s not like Mark is such a great name.”
Tell him bestie
“Jeez. Must have been a bitch to jerk off with no hands, huh?”
Stop being a dick
Eric hates it because he doesn’t like change. He hates trying new things. He only eats sandwiches with the crusts trimmed off, and he still has Star Wars sheets on his bed.
He's autistic isn't he
It’s weird how easily I can lie to my friends. To everyone, in fact. I even lie to myself sometimes.
Same btw
It would be like the ending to that short story we read in English class last year, where the villagers throw stones at the unlucky lottery winner.
Haha
I do what she asks, but some of it misses and hits her knuckles.
Ewww
I look over my shoulder, past Claudia who’s breathing down my neck, to Tilly. Her eyes lock onto mine like she knows I’m talking about her.
Definitely not creepy at all
“That’s just the house. It’s haunted.”
Haunted house yaaay
I hate when adults use one kid to shame another.
It’s an universal experience then
“Whose bicycle is this?” “It’s yours now.”
That's so cute
She’s enjoying this.
How do u know dummy
What a bitch.”
What an asshole you mean the guy cheated not her
Somehow Tiffany is to blame for all of this, not Todd.
That's what I'm sayiiiing
“Talking about it brings it all back. And that’s painful.”
Don’t make me cry it’s 3am
“Do you do that with everything painful? Block it out?”
I do that and it's working just fine
“Hold the bike,” I say, tilting the handlebars to her. “What are you doing?” “Being petty.” The jackknife in my pocket has a hook tool on it. Kneeling beside the Charger’s front tire, I unscrew the cap from the air nozzle and use the hook tool to twist the valve out of the stem. Air hits my face in a loud hiss. I chuck the valve into the weeds, get my bike, and we ride away.
Now that's what I'm talking about
“No. Not my secret to tell.”
She's so nice
Watching it, I’m wondering why anyone in their right mind would want to go back to high school,
Hahaaa
I like her.
Anww he likes her
I’m nothing special to her. I’m just the only friend she has.
Shhhh
“It’s been three days,” she says.
She was thinking about him awww
“Sometimes I do things, and I don’t know why. It’s like I’m floating outside of my body, watching myself doing something stupid. But I can’t stop it.”
I'm relating to this kid more than I want to
“You promised the first ride in the Galaxie to me and Eric. And you go give it to that freakshow?”
Is he jealous lmao
It’s confusing, feeling horny and sad at the same time.
I know right
