Kindle Notes & Highlights
It’s as if Aggie has poured something cool over the boiling, wretched sadness that always burns in her chest, dousing it in one great gush.
he might even have a girlfriend for all Jane knows.
yeah, or TWO
but it’s also a little grating for Miranda, who has never really understood how people can be consistently late. Why don’t they just realize they always need to factor in more time?
She is so far gone now—bitterly, painfully in love.
My heart is already breaking for her; for the destruction of his betrayal
over the last couple of months it’s become more intense; he seems to want her more,
Yeah cause he’s not getting any with Shiobhan anymore.
“If I was seeing someone else, don’t you think you’d be able to tell? Look at me. I’m completely committed to you, I promise. There’s only you. There’s only you.”
GROSS
I mean. It is the first Friday of the month. Mine, right?” she adds softly.
Oh this can’t be the SAME first Friday that he and Miranda *JUST* fought about???
“I’d like that,” Joseph says as she opens her mouth to try to take it all back. “I’d really like that, Siobhan.”
This guy is getting INCREASINGLY difficult to like and to root for. None of these women deserve this flip floppy cheater
Why can’t you just be some awful, lying, womanizing cheat who never told me about his girlfriend, who let me think I was the only one?
Except, he IS. Kind of.
I could surprise him. A grand gesture.”
Could this be it — finally the accidental confrontation of all 3 women that I’ve been waiting for??
There’s nothing magical about New Year’s Eve—if
W A I T. Wait wait wait. Richard’s secretary is JANE isn’t it!!! The drama that happened to her was him blackmailing her into being fired. The HR case that Shiv didn’t file led to Jane getting fired for sleeping with Richard.
the first Friday of the month—it’s still hers, still marked out in his diary—but
He has this in his diary two years later. I am more and more convinced that Siobhan is dead. And maybe Joseph feels Richard had something to do with it.
Siobhan Kelly has less than one minute left to live.
DAMN IT. I had a feeling this was coming but still. DAMN IT!!!!!
His sister’s been trying to set him up with someone for ages
I'm curious if the sister or the "someone" will be a familiar face from one of the other stories.
thinks suddenly of Aggie’s painting in her flat, the one that says, Most people are shit, what are you going to do about it? And she thinks, I’m going to notice all the ones who are doing their very best not to be.
She doesn’t want to wish harm on anybody, but oh, she does wish just a little harm on Richard.
Perhaps this crushed, crumpled man is the real Joseph Carter. She would very much like to meet him.
I don’t want to let her go, because I said I never would, I said I’d never leave her, and she was so afraid I would and I don’t want to. I can’t. I can’t let her go.”
She’s beautiful, and a bit strange, but in the best way, you know?
He thought learning to be happy again, after Siobhan, would be a Herculean effort, but actually it is a string of small victories like this, moments he hardly notices happening until they’ve passed.
the day when Fiona took Joseph shopping for a costume one Halloween—of
The cowboy costume! For the party he went to with Miranda!
Thank God for Miranda for making me talk. Thank God for Jane, for showing me how to love again.
