I know! I had to settle for heart-ing her.

Yeah, photocopy expenses are a bitch.

In a sad three-ring binder!

During the debate, I kept waiting for him to say, "If I'm elected, there will be meth! Meth for everyone!"

I'm already attempting to reverse-engineer the pattern ...

Indeed. Where are my apple-sized strawberries? WHERE??

I didn't think Book 4 was up to the level of the first three, but I didn't hate it. Book 5 has some great parts, but it also has some truly terrible parts. On the whole, I'm glad I read them because I'm highly, highly invested in the series, and I'll read Book 6, of course. But I don't think the last two have the same…

I've read nothing else by him, so I'll have to look that up.

Yes! What a horrifying book. Even more horrifying to think that it's an actual thing that afflicts families.

I'm going to assume this happens because my cats feel emasculated at being overpowered. Since the lion can destroy at will, he'll allow the indignity.
