I have two for you this week. One from the ebook that I’m reading, and one from the audiobook I’m listening to.

First up, a quote from the ebook…

“The city shined in the sunlight like a bunch of metallic boobs. What? I’m not a poet. They look like boobs.”

This just flat out made me laugh. But at the same time, it gets the visual across pretty effectively.

And now, the audiobook…

“I’ve died. There is no more… me.”

This is one of the creepiest things I’ve heard in the book so far. The man who says it is walking around, talking normally, and then all of a sudden, he stops walking, goes silent until he starts with, “I’ve died…” Really creepy.
