Rainbow Rowell
He already knows what I look like, Cath said. There's no point in being tricky about it now. How is doing your hair--and maybe putting on some lip gloss--being tricky? It's like I'm trying to distract him with something shiny.
Rainbow Rowell
So...I'm larking through the Baby Gap, looking at tiny capri pants and sweaters that cost more than ... I don't know,more than they should. And I get totally sucked in by this ridiculous, tiny fur coat. The kind of coat a baby might need to go to the ballet. In Moscow. In 1918. To match her tiny pearls.
Rainbow Rowell
I've never loved the name Rainbow - it seems like a name you'd give to your stuffed unicorn - but I really like having an unusual name. It stands out. And it made me feel like it was okay to stand out. To be different.
Rainbow Rowell

Rainbow Rowell
