"When Samuel was a child reading a Choose Your Own Adventure novel, he'd keep a bookmark at the site of a very hard decision, so that if the story turned out poorly, he could go back and try again. More than anything he wants life to behave this way."

"She'd decided that about eighty percent of what you believe about yourself when you're twenty turns out to be wrong. The problem is you don't know what your small true part is until much later."

Enjoying finding out the backstories that brought the main characters to their present lives. While the book is quite long, it never drags.

"Mostly what Samuel felt during the kiss was relief that the kiss was happening. And also that Bethany's lips felt dry and chapped. This odd detail. That Bethany had chapped lips. It surprised him. In his imagination of her, Bethany seemed elevated beyond stupid earthly concerns." Enjoying the unusual collection of plots, the well-observed writing, and the frequent humor.
