“The secret about falling in love is how you can do it a million times over with the same person, when the person is the right one.”
“It's like I've been your therapist. You dump all over me and then you don't even stick around to reciprocate. At least therapists get paid. I'm just doing all of it for free.”
“When you don’t know the right thing to say, maybe it’s time to listen instead.”
“It was really scary for me and you refused to see it. You couldn't see that I'm a person standing here, not some perfect girlfriend you conjured up.”
"It's strange to think you could grow up right alongside someone and be one category of person when it turns out they're another entirely."
Everything felt so easy then: friendships, boyfriends, the future,. But now my feelings are too messy. It’s like something has been rotting from within and now there’s no way to know when it started.
Knowing a new person is a special kind of magic, because they don’t have to see everything.
“Sure. Good luck with this latest incarnation of yourself.” He says it like a biting insult, but shouldn’t we all be trying to be the latest incarnation of ourselves? I’ve never been happier to feel so little like the girl I was last year.
"By the time you realize you're thirsty, it's too late. You're already dehydrated. Therefore, it stands to reasons that if you feel the end coming, you're already there."This was such a bittersweet book - in the best way. I just feel really sad and filled with pain about this friendship that just falls apart over time. It definitely hooks you and pulls you into the story. You're so invested you feel the heartbrea and pain alongside Kat and James.
