13y/o: This is 4¾. 

Me: Saving the five for a few books from now?

13y/o: Yesssss. Actually, I think this one is 4½. I really love the family dynamics in this one. And I know I told you this while we were reading, but the conversation between Katherine and Diana in the kitchen? SOB. 

Me: I. KNOW. 

13y/o: And also, thinking about

Diana's son visiting the Market?

omg

Me: Do you think

he stayed? Since Diana wrote that letter in 1990, and no mention is made of him having been at the school?

13y/o: omg, maybe? And maybe we'll get THAT as a book or short story one day?

Me: I hope so. 

13y/o: I'm glad you're reading Juice Like Wounds to me now, bc I haven't read it and I always felt like Mockery had such a huge presence without ever having appeared on page.
