Mistakes Were Made

Product Information

Her mantra for this is “fuck should,” which is a great sentiment, but also gets translated into “do whatever the fuck I want no matter if it hurts someone I care about,” which is harder for me to get onboard with since her second main goal is to strengthen her relationship with Parker. I didn't like that when Erin texted her daughter a question and she didn't respond, she texted the same question to Cassie.

As I'd previously mentioned, it was nice to see Cassie nervous and blushing when it came to Erin, just as it was lovely to see Erin's affection for Cassie as well. While both Cassie and Erin make some questionable choices, the biggest thing you have to give them credit for is going after exactly what they want, no matter what people are going to think of them.Cassie’s saving grace is her smarts and self-confidence, and with her plans to become an engineer and attend grad school at Cal Tech, she doesn’t think she needs anyone else. And I definitely didn't like how Cassie tried to justify it by saying that it was only fair that she fucked Parker's mother because Parker had unknowingly (! High steam, high sweet, just enough taboo, and all the MILF a growing girl needs (sorry, I had to get at least one pun in there 😂)!

S. President Bill Clinton's January 28, 1997, admission that "mistakes were made" with respect to Democratic Party fundraising scandals.

More unsettling than this though, is the fact that they can't stop thinking about one another when they're apart. For Erin not to think about it was somewhere between thoughtless and clueless (and not in a good way).

I enjoyed the writing and the characters, but the pace was quite slow and it was lacking the steam I was looking for. Mistakes Were Made feels like it should be the title of my life, and honestly, I think that is why I liked this book so much. Amusingly, more googling hasn't found me an instance of Nixon saying it, but his press secretary and chief of staff are both on the record. Each woman is so deep in denial that there is not much to propel the story forward and it definitely drags at times. and on the flip side, there is stuff i would ONLY want my friends to know, never my mom, and then you're making your friend lie to THEIR PARTNER, who is YOUR MOM so you're actively participating in a wedge in their relationship.In October 2006, in regard to an air strike killing about 70 Afghan civilians, British Army General David Richards said that "in the night in the fog of war, mistakes were made.

The reason I’m rating it three stars instead of something higher though, is because there were soooo many sex scenes, to the point where it was like… what happened to the plot?

That was not my favorite thing, but the banter and how cute the falling in love story was made up for it to me. The relationships depicted between not only Cassie and Erin, but also between Cassie and her friends and Erin and Rachel felt vey real, and I loved how there were literally no prominent male characters lmao. Erin and Cassie are super cute together and compatible, which worked for me despite the big age gap because we know Cassie has had absent parents and has been supporting herself (and growing up) a lot earlier than other people her age. honestly, i just think 20+ years is too different in MOST cases (obvs there are exceptions to this). i own this audiobook, so mayyybe I’ll feel differently a few months or years down the line on a re-listen, but i dunno.Y'all know I've been hyping this book to the GODS and back ever since I found the blurb on Goodreads a year ago. She bit her bottom lip as she smiled, looking over at Cassie, who tipped her glass and let her eyes wander to the open stool beside her. S. President Ronald Reagan used the phrase in the State of the Union Address while discussing contacts with Iran in what came to be known as the arms-for-hostages scandal within the Iran–Contra affair. Also, what was Erin thinking when she agreed to Parker’s plea that she purchase plane tickets to surprise Cassie with so she could come stay with them for Christmas?
