chap 82 mild spoiler;



“No, you are wrong there. You are dead wrong about that. Now since you didn’t come down here on Sheriff’s Department business I am gonna have ta ask ya ta leave.”

That was my favorite line!  I love it when Ellery states things so matter of factly and bosses people around!  I also like that Ellery's immediate instinct was to ask if Wes was there... I'm glad he knows he's got back-up there.

No, she hasnt yet. RL was getting in the way...
I've been reading Midwest-girl's If I Asked - a Jack and Ennis from Jack's POV. I think her writing is amazing
And I was about to read Debutante9 The Wolf and the Thunderbird, it's really different but her writing is brilliant, really clever  :)

possessive too.  *I think I hear Mr. Coyote sneaking in.*
