How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #4
Dear Kippy, I can't wait to meet you. Either my parents or my boyfriend will be driving me down to school. (9.106)
Dolores's first letter to Kippy, her future roommate, is full of three lies in two sentences: She doesn't want to meet her, she has no parents, and she doesn't have a boyfriend either.
Quote #5
"Bulls*** you're the same person. Just because you have a gland problem or whatever, it doesn't give you the right to pretend to be something you're not. Is the truth too much to ask from someone who's going to be your roommate?" (13.120)
Kippy calls Dolores out on her lies here, and we have to say that she does have a point. If someone lies to you before they even meet you, how can you ever trust them? And what else might they be hiding?
Quote #6
"We did make love. Just before he left for school. Out at this place called the Ridge."
I didn't say anything.
"It was so beautiful," [Kippy] said. "It was unreal." (13.133-13.135)
While we agreed with Kippy three seconds ago, here she reveals herself to be a giant hypocrite. She didn't sleep with Dante, and she's lying, just like Dolores is, practically in the same breath as she gets mad at Dolores for lying to her.
