"I like my desserts more layered and subtle. I think we've discussed this before. Someday, I'll give you a rundown on my philosophy about cakes, women, and complexity."

~ Persuasion (The Heirs of Watson Island #2) by Martina Boone, Kindle Location 744 (ARC)

~ The Actor and the Housewife by Shannon Hale, pg. 117




"What's it for, erythromycin?" 

"It's a macrolide antibiotic used to prevent bacterial infection, usually postop, often for individuals who have an allergic reaction to penicillin. Though not always."

~ The Silent Girls by Eric Rickstad, pg. 187
