skin & bones: a novel

by Renée Watson

God, I believe you are powerful enough to heal my broken heart. Why couldn’t you be kind enough to keep it from breaking in the first place?

My love for you isn’t what I’m unsure of. I am deciding if you deserve it. I love you. I love me too.

I think love is always worth fighting for. Even platonic love.

I am starting to be who I always thought I was.
