21 " I called on Dex first. 'Um, yes. We have this friend, Izzy Brannick? She's about your height, has your color hair, and she is a normal, sane-type person. And you, Crazy Lady, seem to have replaced her. Can we have Izzy back now please? "

22 " I know it looks vaguely unsanitary and potentially scandalous, Nana, but I promise that Izzy and I are only pursuing noble...pursuits. We've even got a chaperone! Izzy, who was that woman who went into the cave?'I blanked, not sure how to describe Maya. I settled on, "My...also my Nana. "
23 " Ouija boards don’t work.'Dex rocked back on his heels, still grinning. 'That a fact?''I’m just saying, I don’t think that anything made by Milton Bradley is much good for contacting the dark side, that’s all. "
24 " I had always been proud of my mom. So she’d never back cookies, or sew a Halloween costume, but she could fight monsters. She was tough and smart, and maybe she didn’t read bedtime stories, but she had taught me to defend myself against the things that lurked under beds. "
25 " I don’t know what heaven smells like, but if it doesn’t smell like freshly backed cookies, I will be really disappointed. "
26 " I’m Dexter O’Neil, Mrs. Brannick,” Dex said, offering his hand to shake. “And I’m hoping you’ll adopt me. "
27 " Our lips met, and if this kiss wasn’t as…thorough as the first one, it felt bigger somehow. More important. "
