1% in: To Alfie for helping me with the cover, even though you definitely will not ever read it. No, son, not even when you’re 21!

From what I've read, maybe you won't let him read this due to the massive amount of shame about the horrid messages you send about gay men, or black men.   I already wanna tell the book to fuck off, and I'm not even in the book part of the book.  

I forgot about the Kindle app. 

‘Kate!’ I yell frantically. Where the hell are they? I run out onto the landing and throw myself over the banister. ‘Kate!’

‘You need to tidy that room, Ava. It’s a fucking mess.’ she complains.

"Yes, well, you need to learn how to punctuate properly," I retort.   "Or at least use a capital letters when starting a sentence."

dunk my finger in Kate’s cake mixture. ‘I can’t be brilliant at everything.’

‘Get out!’ She bats my hand away with her spoon. ‘Why do you need your car, anyway?’ she asks, leaning down to smooth the mixture over,

Are you seriously going to *serve* that to someone now?   Nasty.  

‘Don’t let Irene clap her eyes on it.'

Eyes clapping might be weirded than anything eyes did in Every Which Way.

Wait, do they usually not move when he nods his head?   Is so confused as to why this needed to be specified.   To the point where I want to ask what just happened! 

While I’m pondering my next move, the doors open, revealing the biggest black man I’ve ever seen. He saunters out to the top of the steps. I physically flinch at the sight of him, stepping back slightly. He has a black suit on – specially made for sure because that’s no regular size – a black shirt and a black tie. His shaven head looks like it’s been buffed to a shine, and wraparound sunglasses conceal his face. If I could build a mental image of who I would have expected to walk out of them doors, he, most definitely, would not be it. The man is a mountain, and I know I’m stood here gawking at him. I’m suddenly slightly concerned that I’ve turned up at some mafia control centre, and I search my brain trying to remember if I transferred my rape alarm to my new handbag.

Fuck you, book.   Fuck you, and fuck your racism.   

the grand, centrally position, curved staircase

Centrally positioned?

‘The Manager?’ I ask.

‘The Owner,’ he replies,

Why are Manager and Owner capitalized?   Also, the big, black man that scares her using 'Owner' with a capital O rubs me the wrong way.   Maybe I'm being overly sensitive, but it did not sit right with me.   What.  The.  Fuck?

3% in: His eyes are sludgy green, but bright and way too intense,

Sludgy and bright and intense?   One of these things does not belong.   

He smells divine – all fresh water and minty.

Wait, he smells like fresh water?   Whut?
