Stacey doled out to herself this strategic reserve of Lisa’s favorite texts in careful drips, never reading two in a row. They were Stacey’s reward to herself, her way of connecting back to this person without admitting that that’s what she wanted. Almost all of them had Lisa’s dog-ears and margin notes. Jaunty, clever quips, occasionally filthy, always charming: A huge smiley face at a perverted scene in Lolita. A sarcastic “Thumbs-up, bro!” at a bit of misogyny from Milan Kundera’s The Book of Laughter and Forgetting. A “Jesus I’m wet” next to a scene in Wuthering Heights.
The "Wuthering Heights" quip is kinda funn y not gonna lie. I adore the book but she nailed it with that side quip.
