你知道男人和女人说谎最大的差别在哪里吗?
男人说谎是要让自己觉得好过, 而女人说谎是要让对方好过。
女人选择欺骗是因为不像伤害深爱的人。
女人不是故意的。
只是没有伤害对方的勇气所以才隐藏真正的答案。

Allie did at least a hundred things each day simply because of their effect on Cam. They bound him t her: she'd drop his shirts off at th cleaners without being asked, or lay out a bowl of cereal for him before she went t bed so it was there in th morning, or, as in th case of th tea, open herself t teasing just t guarantee an exchange of conversation. She made his life run so smoothly that he never had t wonder about those little details that plague everyone else- like turning th clocks back in th fall, or always having enough milk in th refrigerator, or keeping handy th right size batteries for whatever equipmnet he was fixing. She told herself this was something she wanted t do, a silent promise she's made on her wedding day t th handsome, magnificent man standing beside her. If everyday flowed seamlessly into th next for Cam, he'd never have th reason t wonder, What if?

He handn't done this in three years, but he thought that if he spend every waking minute of th day with Allie, listening t her nd watching her nd only her, he could surely drive Mia Townsend from his mind.

He paused for a moment, cocking his hear. "If I was dying of cancer nd in god-awful pain nd I asked you t kill me, would you do it?"Allie didn't hesitate. "Yes. But thn I'd kill myself, too."Cam's mouth fell open."Because you murdered me?""No" Allie said. "Because you'd be dead."

Th last one's something for you t ponder about, I guess.
Mercy, one of th hardest read ever for me. I was practically cringing while reading it.
There's so many ups nd downs, even though I'm just half way through. Initially thought of doing th review after I've finished reading it. But somehow I just couldn't wait. I wanna share th afterthoughts, th fantastic paragraphs (mentioned above).


It felt as though Cam really love Allie with his whole heart, when he was struggling in th water trying t find Allie when she fell off th lil fishing boat. Nd for a moment, forgot that he was actually cheating on Allie with Mia.
It felt so awful when Cam was making love t Mia while his wife is out of town t help his own cousin, when Cam looked at Allie but wishing she was Mia, when Cam tried t provoke Allie so that they could fight nd he could justify his anger (which was twards himself).
It felt so heart warming when Cam hired Graham MacPhee on his own t protect his cousin, Jamie, despite being th prosecutor of his case. But things changed when he comes face t face with Jamie. He was hostile.

You could really tell, that Allie love Cam more than she ever loved anyone. Nd she love Cam more, rather than th other way round. Jamie said, in every relationship, it's hard t balance a 50 - 50. (Which I personally agree!) So when he talked t Allie more, he concluded that Allie nd Cam was a 70 - 30.


Another thing t ponder about:
Is a mercy killer still considered a killer?
