"Light, moderate, the flows and the...the...I mean what are adult diapers, baby diapers, pads, tampons, condoms and lube all doing in one place? And do you know how many women hang out in that aisle at one time? There was a baby...and it was mocking..."When Jordan and Adeline (love that pretty, old timey name) actually spoke to one another, this was a freaking fantastic book. Unfortunately there just wasn't enough of the actual talking taking place for me. We get to know these characters basically through a whole lot of internal dialogue. It seemed odd that Jordan an Adeline fell so hard and fast for each other because, besides the frequent sex, they didn't do the communication thing very well. Jordan knows he loves Adeline and also realizes she's waiting to hear it from him. Somehow he can't find the words. Dude, man up and find the words. Adeline wonders how Jordan feels about her and if, after a solid 2 months of seeing each other, she means more to him than just a one night stand. I know, I know *raising hand and shaking it furiously!* Pull up your big girl britches and ask the man!"I want her there regardless of whether I can touch her, but it's harder for some reason to ask when I have no sexually-based reason; just another example of what a schmuck I am."Well said, Jordan. I wholeheartedly concur.In spite of these two and their mutual fear of conversation, I did enjoy the book. It was sweet, sexy, sad, and often times funny. I just wish I'd gotten a little more interaction not involving a bed, wall or pestle between them.
