Lio by Mark Tatulli for March 21, 2023

fabulous

Call it a hunch, but I don’t think that first book applies to Eva Rose.

Pretty much

Gives “Open your heart” a new meaning.

Advice from the first book:

1) Complement the color of her eyes – Nope, can’t do that.

2) Tell her she cuts you up – Not a good time to say that.

3) Say she has a nice smile Can’t do that either.

You may want to wait a few years, Lio!

She sure seems like the perfect match for Lio.

Maybe you should. After all, it is free!

Lio …. you can do better.

See, she really wants to know you better! She wants to see how you tick!

I think she should start off by practicing to be a mohel. Ya gotta start small ans work your way up

Lio’s survival instincts still work OK, anyway.

OOH! She wants to play ‘doctor!’

This one made me literally (and I mean literally) choke laugh on my coffee.

If they’re alive when you start, it’s not an autopsy.

Better alone than dead, usually…..

I wonder: Will Eva ever want anyone? If so, what sort of person? Apparently nothing like herself.

I want a doctor to take your picture, so I can look at you from inside as well…

Lio has not the gut of doing that.
