Quotes by Josie Jaffrey (?)

“Exhaling heavily, I sank back down into the sofa and picked up the book again. When I'd read the same sentence five times, I decided I wasn't going to be able to lose myself in the story and returned it regretfully to the pile of books on the coffee table.”
― Josie Jaffrey, A Bargain in Silver

“Strange how much damage we can cause without even trying,”

“I guess you can never really know someone, even, perhaps especially, when you're in love.”
