Insights from The Maid (Molly the Maid, #1)

“I am your maid. I know so much about you. But when you see me, I’m part of the furniture.”

Molly sees the world in sharp edges and clean lines. Most people just see her as invisible backdrop. It makes me wonder who I ignore while they're fixing my life.

“Everything will be all right in the end. If it's not all right, it's not the end.”

Gran left behind more than just cleaning tips. Her voice in Molly's head is a lifeline. We all carry a ghost who tells us how to behave.

“Vices are easy. Virtues are much more difficult to maintain.”

Social cues are just a language some people never learn. Molly struggles with sarcasm but understands integrity better than anyone. It’s a trade-off I respect.

The Olive Garden scene feels so heavy. Molly thinks she's found a friend. The reader sees the predator. It hurts to watch her hope.
