The Hitchcock Hotel A Novel by Stephanie Wrobel Quotes

Always make the audience suffer as much as possible.
Every seat is taken. So of course the flight is delayed!
Let’s make it worth the lost revenue.
I know how hard you’ve all worked lately. As a thank-you, I have a surprise.
You can take Saturday and Sunday off.
Not like the elegantly dressed man who says, ‘No, no, sweetheart, it will be tight, but I’m sure I’ll still make it.
She is not anything that anyone will later recall.
How did she ever think being a stay-at-home mom would be easier than being a lawyer?
The lady is traveling alone.
At no stage does the lady make a bitter-voiced performative phone call.
Not like the two twentysomething friends who had been drinking prosecco at the airport bar on empty stomachs.
