OstensiblyA

I couldn’t believe I was actually going through with the whole thing either. That had to count for something.

No, it doesn't, asshole. You're the worst. — Page 171 (39%)

OstensiblyA

She was about to remark, perhaps because it was true or perhaps because his hand was making her nervous, that Chris Cornell sang an awful lot about the sun . . .

Huh, I never realized it before, but he totally does. Or Soundgarden did. — Page 67 (16%)

"His eyes flushed with pride and his smile broadened." His eyes flushed? — Page 78 (18%)

Ellie is really making herself unlikable. Why is she going to rob him? Going straight lasted all of five minutes. Which is one issue, the other is why she would do this to someone who meant something to her, someone she had already hurt in the past. I hope she works on becoming more likeable, and not just because she's attracted to him. I also hope the story picks up. I'm kind of bored at this point. — Page 82 (19%)

OstensiblyA

Already she’d earned the nicknames “Sir-Limps-A-Lot” (which didn’t make much sense considering her gender), “The Gimp,” and “Crippled Cow.” The cow part, of course, was for the fact that she’d gained a bit of weight since the accident. Something that was somewhat inevitable when you combined the burgeoning hormones of a thirteen-year-old and her limited ability.
. . .
“Oh you know, Vicky Besset told everyone in history class that I walk funny because I used to weigh three hundred pounds and broke my ankles. Now I hear ‘Crippled Cow’ everywhere I go.” The girl said all this as breezily as possible, trying hard to hide the shame and embarrassment that was ripping her apart.

^^^BULLYING.

"This book fucking sucks and the writing is terrible." <<< Not bullying.

It's really not that difficult to understand, I promise.

As for this book, I'm still waiting to get into it. The first person is tedious and you know how I hate POV changes (this between first and third limited to Ellie, so far). Hopefully it'll get interesting soon. — 11%

Woman Reading

Tell me, angel, what is it about that boy that makes you forget who you really are? Is it the tattoos, because you know I have those." He quickly shed his linen shirt and stood bare-chested before me, the tattoo of his mother's name on his inner arm. He turned around slowly, making sure I saw the large cross going down his spine. "Or is it those horrible glasses of his? You know, I can look like a fucking idiot if I really wanted to."
