the best friends you’ll never have

I have a file on my computer where I paste funny quotes from the books. Here’s one from Mary Anne and Too Many Boys:

We all walked down to the water’s edge, and I noticed that Stacey and Toby never took their eyes off each other. Stacey seemed thrilled to see Toby again, but I reminded myself that she had acted exactly the same way around Pierre, a boy we met at a ski lodge. And there’d been Scott, the Sea City lifeguard, too. Toby was at the top of the list for the moment, but who knew if it would last?

Yes, MA basically calls Stacey a slut here, despite the fact that MA herself forgot she was going out with Logan when she saw Alex! Why are you so judgmental, Spier? Stacey’s a free agent and can ogle as many boys as she wants!

Ha! Interesting because I was just reading Stacey and the Mystery at the Empty House, and Stacey has kind of a judgmental moment as well. She mentions the time MA “was using babysitting time to entertain her boyfriend” and “we were all kind of ticked off at Mary Anne.” She even says in her narration “Bad move, Mary Anne.” Not long after, Stacey will ignore Jamie Newton’s barfing rampage to entertain HER boyfriend.
