First step Quote by Gabrielle Zevin
““Why are the cute ones always such sociopaths?" "Win doesn't seem like so much of a sociopath," I replied without thinking. "Oh, really? So, you think he's cute, do you? At least you're admitting it now." I shook my head. Scarlet was incorrigible. "Admitting it is the first step, Annie.””
