thoughts while reading

p14: oh aman is matt’s bestie. i was predicting him to be someone grandpa used to know/grandpa himself
p28: this is a sucky situation :( take aman out
p46: yes grandpa, stand up for aman
p100: this treatment is absolutely outrageous but sadly absolutely on par with what i know of uncivil middle eastern police 😔
p115: can people just have some human decency please!
p121: see there we go 🫶🏻
p126: shadow is such a good girl, what a legend! but i really hope she doesn’t get blown up 😬
p251: i’m guessing sergeant brodie is either dead, still in iran, or they got the address wrong
p261: what a legend, ‘singing in the the rain’
p265: you are kidding. i’d call their bluff
p280: aw 🥰
p284: wait wait wait wait. october 7. of course hamas would pick a previous massacre date to attack israel 🙄😤
