Smoke by Catherine McKenzie
4.0
I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it. My only complaint is that I took too long to finish it. I've never highlighted text on my kindle to remember later, but the metaphors that this author used were so perfect at times, that I just had to share them.
"We’ve had this kind of standoff about alot of things lately, communicating through the things not done, the words not said, our inaction as loud and grating as an unfixed faucet’s slow drip."
"smoke. It’s a fragrance that works its way into your skin, your hair, and even now, two years away from it, I still catch its scent clinging to me every once in a while, like a lover who doesn’t want to let go."
