30 day book challenge - Day 5


Day 5 - A book that makes you happy

As a fan of the TV show, I just had to check out the books. I love the banter between Shawn and Gus, and it's just like it is in the show. It always makes me laugh and smile at the bromance these two have, even though they'll deny it like crazy!

Shawn is a "psychic" that helps solve murder cases and Gus is his right hand man and scapegoat. Together, they get themselves into so much trouble but always seem to get out of it at the right time (or at the wrong time) in order to solve the case in the end, with some comicality with a touch of seriousness.

“Ironic, isn’t it?” Shawn said.
“It’s not ironic at all,” Gus said.
“Dude, it’s so like a black fly in your chardonnay.”
“How many times do I have to tell you that’s not ironic, either?”
“Rain on your wedding day?”
“‘Irony’ is the use of words to convey a meaning that’s opposite to their literal meaning,” Gus said. “That stupid song came out fourteen years ago, and we still have this exact conversation at least once a week.”
“Yeah,” Shawn said. “Ironic, isn’t it?”
