"Saying 'I notice you're a nerd' is like saying, 'Hey, I notice that you'd rather be intelligent than be stupid, that you'd rather be thoughtful than be vapid, that you believe that there are things that matter more than the arrest record of Lindsay Lohan. Why is that?' In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary insults are pretty lame. Even 'lame' is kind of lame. Saying 'You're lame' is like saying 'You walk with a limp.' Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he's done all right for himself."— John Green

 Jane by April Lindner

     "I cast around for my job-interview voice, the one that had apparently served me so well yesterday.  Though she couldn't see me, I three back my shoulders and raised my chin.  "I look forward to hearing more.  Where will I be working?"

     Julie Draper laughed in a surprisingly musical tone.  "This will sound bizarre, but I can't give you any more details over the phone.  How soon can you meet me?""
(pg. 6)

So good so far!  It's captured my interest, and because I adore Jane Eyre, I really hope I like this.  But it does seem promising right now!!
