Meg Lelvis asked this question about None of This Is True:
Did anyone else get a veiled threat from Josie's letter to Alix when she says Leon is such a sweet boy, and she's always had a soft spot for him? Then says to "take care of him...keep him safe." I imagine Josie trying to kidnap Leon for revenge, but the book ended!
Anna Yes. I also thought this showed some of Josie’s obsession with Leon. She didn’t seem to both much at all with the daughter.

“Leon nods seriously. Josi…moreYes. I also thought this showed some of Josie’s obsession with Leon. She didn’t seem to both much at all with the daughter.

“Leon nods seriously. Josie lets her eyes linger on his hands, still plumped up with whatever it is that lives under the skin of young children. There's a scab on the knuckle of his thumb and she remembers scabs. She remembers verrucas and nits and ingrown toenails and baby teeth hanging on by threads and all the other tiny, perfect defects of small children. She resists the urge to touch the scab, to give it a magic kiss. She resists the urge to say, "Oh no, you have an owe. She feels the loss of her children so viscerally and horribly that she could scream with the agony of it.”(less)
