Kindle Notes & Highlights
Maybe we can arrange a company game of dodgeball, and I can chuck something at his face.
Our bodies are already flush, but I still squeeze her tighter. Because for the first time in fifteen years, Hannah Utley spoke my name.

“I’m here. Just busy wondering how you’ve already managed to sleep with this woman without, it seems, actually talking to her.”
“Something had to have happened. I need to go talk to her.” “Let me put the phone down so I can do a slow clap for you.”

We’re meant to laugh with them when they make derogatory comments about other women in front of us.
