Summary
It’s on the tip of her tongue to ask what this is, and she doesn’t know if she wants to hear the answer. She doesn’t absolutely know what answer she would give if it was the other way around. But it feels strange to even think about describing it, defining it, holding it up to the light for analysis, because all Iga can think about right now is how it makes her feel, how much she likes it.
How shy she feels about even the thought of Karolina taking last night lightly, when it meant so much to her.

Summary
“You saw me drive in Barbieland,” Barbie argues. “I drove there every day.”
Gloria shakes her head. “Your car didn’t have an engine—”
“Your headlights were painted on,” Sasha says, making a face.
“You didn’t have traffic rules and the right of way was based on whose nails were the sparkliest—”
“Your car was powered by wishing.”
“Fine, you made your point,” Barbie grumbles uncharacteristically. She crosses her arms and looks out the window. “I guess driving is a little different here.”Gloria teaches Barbie how to drive. Sucks that the irrepressible thoughts of death are at it again.

“Do you miss it?” Gloria asks. “Barbieland, I mean.”
Barbie considers this, looking over at Gloria. She’s wearing a loose linen blouse today, long sleeves pushed back to the elbows, and her hair is blowing slightly in the breeze coming in through the open kitchen window. She looks like every other woman in the world: beautiful.
“Yes,” Barbie says. “Sometimes. But I’d rather be here with you.”

“We should make it official,” says Richie.
Gloria laughs, confused. “We tried that. It didn’t work.”
“The separation, Gloria. Divorce.”
(Gloria is quite sure she’s straight, which makes the panicky feelings she’s been having lately very confusing.)

Summary
"One of the many nights it’s kept her up, she imagined taking the romcom approach to this. In some alternate reality, June gives Nora the grandeur she deserves. And it’s Jane Austen worthy, it’s glitter-in-your-hair, fireworks-in-the-sky, friends-to-lovers bullshit. She’d confess, obviously. Maybe there’s a boombox involved. Maybe it’s pouring rain. The setting doesn’t matter, really, because they’re both there."
even after alex and henry get their happily ever after, there's still a story left to tell. when an ironic new year’s kiss turns triggers something much more, june finds herself stuck in a messy situation. can she find the line between her personal life and her public one? what does it mean to love someone in secret? can she ever find the guts to show it?
the nora x june rwrb sequel we are all dying for

Maybelle’s face broke out into a blush that quickly traveled down her neck and to her chest. It was charming, just like everything Maybelle did. “It’s a little weird. So feel free to say no. You don’t have to—“
“What is it?” Jo couldn’t stop her eyes from flitting down to Maybelle’s lips, a part of her hopeful for the next words that came from them.
“Will you sleep with me?”

"Greta has a lot of rules. Rules keep her safe. Rules keep her from being arrested or put away or even killed. Rules are her house, but not her home. They make a bare bones shelter: nothing more, nothing less.
Still, she can’t live without them."

Summary
She ignored the way Marcus glanced at her because from his angle she’s sure he saw who messaged her. Ignored the way that her heartbeat was a little faster at the fact that this was the first bit of contact they’ve had since they parted ways. Ignored the tight, twisting knots in her stomach, the gnawing ache in her chest.
