Sentence 2

"You liked it?" I said, getting my second taste - and how sweet it was - of a positive review.
from Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini

A question followed by a complete sentence interrupted by a incomplete thought set apart by dashes, ending with a prepositional phrase.

"You like her?" I asked, reassuring his answer - and how upsetting it was - of a depressing rejection.
