“Nobody could hold the same place in your heart as your sister. Love or hate her, she was the only person who grew up exactly like you, who knew the secrets of your household—the laughter that only the walls of your house contained or the screaming at a level low enough the neighbors couldn’t hear, the passive aggressive compliments or the little put-downs. Only your sister could know how it felt to grow up in the house that made you you.”
Jessica Taylor, A Map for Wrecked Girls

“He wanted to learn how the world worked, and I wanted to learn how to work the world.”
Jessica Taylor, Wandering Wild

“Henri held herself as if only her arms could keep her pieced together, and I saw that behind all her fake control—throwing herself at a teacher, carving our dad out of her heart—was something fragile. I wish we’d seen it sooner—my dad and Mr. Flynn, they had a responsibility to see it, to do better. Those moments were my sister spinning out.”
Jessica Taylor, A Map for Wrecked Girls

Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower

Maggie Stiefvater, Shiver
