"…I've ever since I finished it, and though I talked about it in a book club already, there is so much more I could cover and chat about in this book, so I hope that you will join me looking forward to hearing your thoughts.…"
"…Hi, Bowie. How's it going? Oh, wow, girl. Rowan other. Let's just say I came on to say Hello to you, and then I listen to the message, and I'm like, Are you kidding me? Are you seriously rereading sections of this book? My first time around was painful enough. Thank you very much. I tried, but, yeah, enjoy this discussion. I'm going to Bowie out ungratefully because, of course we all know I'm mad.…"
"…I might pop in to this book club, but I have to at least crack open 100 pages before I say anything intelligent. Excited, though I've heard great things about it.…"
"…Shanas, that is such a cop out. I think it's only fair for those who discover this conversation.

And yes, I told you this book is like a fine wine. I think it just gets better. The more you let it breathe and it really deserves a slow, lovely consumption experience.…"

"…First off, I'm going to start off with Deborah. Deborah quit while you're ahead. Run now turn around. Don't look back and just take off. Sorry, Bowie. I couldn't help myself. And Bowie, you are absolutely right. If I don't like the book, I have to stand up and say why. Okay. I will tell you that first off, the first three chapters just took me. I don't even know.…"
"…So I just wanted to reply to this and say I personally did not have to take notes while reading to this book, and I partially listened to it on audiobook and also read the print copy. And I know some folks have trouble following the various names and stuff, and I get that I do think that can be challenging with books that have a lot of characters, but I don't think that that is specific to this book or anything that the writer does wrong or is ineffective.…"
