Kindle Notes & Highlights
“This is just like Ratatouille.”
“I feel like I finally look like myself, you know?”
You take up space. You make the world bigger to fit you. So, no, I’m not surprised you can’t fit inside one idea of gender.”
I don’t know if I love Theo because I’m queer or if I’m queer because I love Theo, but I know there’s nothing I need that Theo doesn’t have.
They’re everything, and they’re Theo. Singular Theo, everlasting Theo, Theo the superbloom.
Love took root in me before I learned its name, and I’ve sat in its shade for so long now without eating its fruit. This feels as if I’ve finally taken a piece into my hands and split it open. It’s so sweet inside. Sour too, slightly underripe—but so, so sweet.
I knew I loved you when I listened to how you talk about something you love. I don’t know if you know how beautiful it is, the way you give your whole heart to what moves you. You’re always looking for reasons to love things, and when you do, it’s never halfway. I’ve always loved that about you.”
