"Washing her sheets was another thing she'd failed to do. She washed her clothes—every weekend—but when it came to the bedsheets, she'd get stressed out or she'd forget. And then there was too much time and then there wasn't enough and she didn't want to sleep in a bed that her mother hadn't made. But now she was here and she would have to wash her sheets and all of this was so, so bad."-Kiley Reid, Come and Get It
"Okay, sometimes—just being honest— Millie can be . . . a little ghetto." On the word little, Tyler held two fingers an inch apart. "Nooo. Don't say that. Ah love Millie." "But I'm not saying it like it's a bad thing." "No, I see what you mean," Jenna said. " Sometimes she'll be all like . . ." She pushed her hair behind her ears. She looked as if it were her turn in a game of charades and she was considering how well she knew the reference. "Ohmygod, I can't even do it," she laughed. "Okay, if we're being too loud or something? She'll be like, 'Gurl, you know iss quiet hours!" Then she poked her lips out. She put a hand on her hip and she shifted her head from side to side."-Kiley Reid, Come and Get It
