Quote #10
"Nina," she replied, "over the last week, I've had a basement full of vampires using up all my hot water, I've had a killer jumping out of an upstairs window, I've had a bloody kidnapper knocking holes in my ceiling, and I've had a werewolf eating me out of house and home." (27.19)
Nina's mom puts things into perspective: Over the last week, her home has been totally wrecked by strangers and supernatural creatures. We're guessing that her insurance policy isn't going to cover the damage. This is just one more way that supernatural critters and tidy homes don't seem to go together.
