- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Favorite lines: "They were slowly forming a club, a secret society of losers who put their belief in belief, instead of in an ordinary world of sex and loss and hurt, like everyone else.""She'd tried to make a joke of it, saying that she worried death was no more than a big shopping mall, minus lights, and that we wended up as lost children, wandering, scared looking for a grown-up. Marty smiled, told her he believed much the same, only the lights came on and every store was a toy store, giving everything away for free, forever.""Change was just the world gearing up to get along fine without you."
