So This Is War (Vancouver Agitators, #5)

by Meghan Quinn

“You’ve already wasted my money if you cut out a year before you graduate.” He runs his hand over his smooth head. “I don’t see why you can’t just finish the year, graduate, and then pursue whatever it is you want to pursue.” “Because it’s a waste of time, Dad. It’s a giant waste of my time, and you, out of everyone, know how time is an invaluable commodity. You never get it back. So why would I waste a year of my life to appease someone else?” “Because I’m your father, and I’ve paid for your college until now. I’ve housed you, fed you, taken care of you.” “And I appreciate everything you’ve done for me, Dad, but I’m twenty-two, and I think I should be able to start making my own decisions, don’t you?”

Maybe she should pay her dad back for all of the schooling up to that point then... sounds like she could've continued the classes at night and just finished the ONE year she had left to at least have something to show for all of the money that was spent. Yes, I'm judging. She's acting like an entitled brat.

“Since I paid for your five years of college, I believe you owe me something.”

Yeah, I'D SAY.

“Well, you will have to be financially independent from me.”

This isn't a catch. It's literally the responsible, adult (miss, I'm 22 and an adult and can make my own decisions) thing to do since she just wasted all of his money in the first place....

“And what sort of job is that?” I ask, knowing full well he’s probably setting this up for me to fail. “What all other struggling creatives do . . . a personal assistant.”

So exactly what Vanessa did for Aiden in The Wall of Winnipeg and Me. At least Vanessa worked her ass off. I wonder if this FMC will become more likable to me...

the one and only woman who has actually made me think I want more.

You had one, very brief, horny encounter and she is the one who made you think you want more? No. You were thinking with your dick and the missed lay. Guys really do just want the chase. I love Posey but COME ON. Why is he simping over this FMC?

“Really? I can stay there?”

Of COURSE he already breaks and let's her get her way. Yeah she's definitely not learning any lesson here and I can see she's just going to get whatever she wants. Is this FMC going to make me DNF my first book my Meghan Quinn?

Dad says as he moves over to the coffee and pours himself a cup. I made that all for me, but whatever.

Again, selfish...

I texted her yesterday after my conversation with my dad, sharing everything that was going on, and she, for one, couldn’t believe my dad was being such a dick.

This chick really needs to be humbled....

To: Levi Posey From: Will Wood Subject: Your List Don’t fuck this up, Posey. Aside from regular tasks like social media, retrieving your food, arranging your calendar, and being at your beck and call, here are a few tasks you need to give her this week: Hand her a copy of a book. I don’t care what book, but give her a copy of it. Tell her you don’t like the font it’s written in, and have her type it out in a different font. Yes, have her type up the entire book, word for word. Tell her you want it in a week for your away trip to the Northeast. Spill something on your floor. Don’t care what it is. But make it disgusting. Tell her she needs to clean it up and make it seem like it was never there. Ask her to get you ten pounds of Skittles. The Skittles must be divided into colors and placed in separate jars. But you want more reds than any other color. At least half a jar more. Have her purchase you fifty number two pencils. Have her sharpen them just enough so they’re pointed but not too much where they’re splintering. Use them as a decoration for a day and then have her donate them to a local school, but she must receive a receipt for the donation. Text her in the middle of the night that you need something, anything. Make her get it for you. After each task, I expect you to take a picture and inform me that it’s been completed. Do not let her off the hook. Don’t let her skate by. I want you to make her life a living hell, got it? And don’t forget the rules. Don’t forget wh...

Honestly, so far Daddy Wood is winning this book for me.
