Quotes from One Crazy Summer that include watch pages 49 to 50.

After I got my sisters in, out, dried, and lotioned, I took my bath, setting my watch on the porcelain edge to keep an eye on my own twelve minutes in the tub. The watch part might have been waterproof, but the plain brown leather band didn’t care for soap and hot water. Bathwater made the leather hard and clammy against my skin. I always took it off.
