"I'm guessing the library here is underfunded?" Mary asked. "Being way out in the sticks and all."

"Absolutely," Sadie agreed with a nod. "The school library is nearly as big, and that's saying something... I guess I should say that it's nearly as small as the school library.

"Thanks!" Sadie grinned. "If you've got suggestions for things you'd like to make sure they have, feel free to let us know. I have a wallet." She patted Meyer's arm playfully and he chuckled and rolled his eyes good-naturedly.

“I don’t think I’m familiar, sorry.” Sadie shook her head. “What genre is it?”

"Poetic prose. It's kind of hard to explain--Marco Polo describes cities to Khubilai Khan, but he describes them in strange ways. A city that's a maze, a city where it's torn down every few decades and moved to another place, a city that hangs suspended over a chasm."

(I just got home from the most incredible first date) (I made a 3 hour round trip to go meet her lol and then our date was 4 hours long and ahhhhh)
“Oh, I won’t,” Sadie promised.
“Weird is kind of her vibe,” Meyer commented. Sadie wrinkled her nose at him. He smirked. “Monty Python…”
“Is premier entertainment.”
