She sent me Almost Like Being in Love by Steve Kluger for Xmas, and I totally love and adore it. I've never fallen in love with characters in a book this quickly before.
And it has the best lines.
This is one of the scenes that make me giggle.
TRAVIS: You just don't understand.
GORDO: Don't I? Travis, if you'd taken Trig with me like I asked you to, you'd know by now that it doesn't matter if you like boys instead of girls because the formulas are the same.
TRAVIS: I never said I like boys!
GORDO: Ever beat off to Penthouse
TRAVIS: No.
GORDO: Ever collect baseball cards?
TRAVIS: No.
GORDO: How old is Barbra Streisand?
TRAVIS: 36. Three weeks ago.
GORDO: What do you need, a fucking blueprint?
*****
I just love it.
Now I must go back to reading and begging the Gods to either a) take my sinusii away or b) let me die al-fucking-ready.
