If we hadn't hated him a lot, we might have liked him a little at that moment. But we did. So we didn't.
Ally Carter
You switched the days, I said, dismayed. You blew the tire. You... I trailed off, probably because the next words out of my mouth were either going to be You are enough to do this? or You're destined for a life of crime. It was a toss-up either way.
