I really don't like having my emotional toes stepped on, having my heart wrung out, but at the same time I guess if things ended blandly or in a truly reassuring fashion, then it wouldn't haunt me like this, wouldn't seem so powerful or memorable. Just like Suni (a character in the book) says, it's the pain, the loss that we remember; all the losses and fears that make up the core of our identities.


That is so true! And I too hate venturing into those waters with my poor weak toes. Nowadays I hardly try any more, Marian Keyes is about as in-depth as I get. It's pathetic. But I'm going to make note of this book, anyway.
