1 " Hell couldn't be worse than a WalMart after midnight, right? "
― MaryJanice Davidson , Undead and Unwed (Undead, #1)
2 " I could have gone to medical school, I said. Except for all the math and stuff. "
3 " I've been stabbed before. Barely a week ago, in fact. AND I've been audited, AND I come from a broken home. In short - no offense, shorty - you don't scare me. "
4 " Has anyone ever told you that you lack focus? "
5 " Did vampirism encourage Stockholm syndrome? "
6 " I mean, I wouldn't have wanted to be recognized. But I was kind of a prude about cheating on taxes, group sex, murder, and stuff. "
7 " I slipped one of the shoes off, looked at the inside. Property of Antonia O'Neill Taylor. I knew it. My stepmother! The bitch meant to bury me wearing her cast off shoes! "
8 " Touch my things again, whether I'm dead or not, and I'll kick your ass up into your shoulder blades. "
9 " I trudged around on the muddy river bottom for half an hour, patiently waiting to drown, before giving up and slogging my way back to shore. "
10 " Can you burn me up with holy water? Poke me to death with your crucifix? Pelt me with communion wafers? "
11 " Kissing Sinclair was like making out with a sexy timber wolf— he was licking my fangs and nipping me lightly and growling under his breath and it was...oh, it was really something. "
12 " Interesting shade #23 Lush Golden Blonde highlights. Heyyyyyy.... The woman in the awful suit was me! The woman in the cheap shoes was me! "
13 " Back off, boys. You don't want to mess with an out-of-work secretary. We're real testy. "
14 " Here I am, just wandering down a deserted street in the middle of the night. I hope I don't run into any trouble. Goodness, that would just ruin my whole evening." I strolled and hummed, trying to project Innocent Victim. "
15 " ... friends are such a mixed blessing. "
16 " Just because I'm dead doesn't mean I can't have a life. "
17 " Crying's okay while it lasts, but you can only do it for so long. And it's weird to do it when you apparently can't make tears anymore (did this mean I wouldn't pee or sweat, either?). Anyway, eventually you're done, and you have to figure out what to do next. "
18 " I turned. Tall, Dark, and Sinister was rapidly approaching. "
19 " It's a long story. Prepared to be regaled. "
20 " A vampire? How ith that pothible? I died in a car ackthident, for God’th thake! Aw, thon of a bith! "
