The Daughters' War (Blacktongue, #0)

by Christopher Buehlman

To love someone well is to know their small noises, and to hear home in them.

I begrudge no one their superstitions—we climb out of despair by whatever rungs we have at hand.

If someone cuts your nose without cause, and with the purpose of destroying your name, you are justified to kill them and to take their property.

“Magic is not for understanding. It is for imagining and accepting.”
