This is a gorgeous, atmospheric, prescient, beautiful retelling of The Great Gatsby. I'm in awe of the imagination of Fajardo, whose 2075 (ish) imagining of the world somehow feels both fresh, yet also feels like an ode to 1984 and dystopian books of ...more

Quotes by Kate Fagan  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“The trick of life, as I see it now, is to make what’s around you beautiful. It’ll grow from there. Took me a long time to see that.”
Kate Fagan, The Three Lives of Cate Kay

“You hold me steady without holding me still.”
Kate Fagan, The Three Lives of Cate Kay

“tiring, but it is not confusing. You are never left wondering if you’ve made the wrong choice, or expended energy in the wrong direction, because there is only the one rung above you. Get good grades. Get better at your sport. Take the SAT. Do volunteer work. Apply to colleges. Choose a college. But then you get to college, and suddenly you’re out of rungs and that ladder has turned into a massive tree with hundreds of sprawling limbs, and progress is no longer a thing you can easily measure, because there are now thousands of paths to millions of destinations. And none are linear.”
Kate Fagan, What Made Maddy Run: The Secret Struggles and Tragic Death of an All-American Teen
