I liked this passage. "Still no traffic, no people. Only the shadows moved. And the limbs of the trees. And the leaves in the tree. And the leaves that had fallen off and were blowing through the night, some flying by as if on a mission, some skidding and tumbling along the pavement."

Ah yes. Back to Dandi Donuts. Donuts at Dandis. Is Dandi Donuts a real place? No--but there is a Daddy's Donuts.

This guy will just drop to the ground and sleep anywhere. Well, it's less that he's sleeping and rather sleep hitting him so strongly he immediately plops down for a nap.
Also he's a total creep right? I can't tell if he's meant to be this awful, accidentally awful, or if this is just how Laymen writes. Still only my first book of his.

How does a guy who loves walking outside at night get so lost so quickly.

"Behind my back, Eileen grunted with shock and despair and horror as if she'd just watched a Panda get beheaded."
Wow, that's so out of place given the context of the scene... they go back under the bridge where the men had assaulted them, and they witnessed those men eating a corpse.
