Light Sister, Dark Sister by Lee Walmsley
" Every so often, I'll randomly pull a book from the library shelf. And every so often, I'll find a hidden gem.

“I heard that the best way to get over someone is to get under someone else.”
Kerry Cohen

“I don’t want to be in pain anymore. I want to be done, to be left unburdened and naked, to tear the hurt off my body like layers of clothes. At the end of the trail I stop and bend forward, hands on my knees, to catch my breath. I’m not healed, but for this moment, I’m better.”
Kerry Cohen, Loose Girl: A Memoir of Promiscuity

“This isn’t a story about how some guy finally saves me from myself.
I’m my own hero here; I do the saving.”
Kerry Cohen
