Kindle Notes & Highlights
Funny, rich, hot, confident, book lover. Definitely not my type. Nope. Not at all.
“You want to know why you’ve never been able to make me cry?” I asked. “Because you’re trying to tear down someone who’s already hit rock bottom. You can’t make me feel any worse about myself than I already do. You’re pathetic, Jason—you and all the other jerks in this school who have nothing better to do with your lives than pick on a cripple.”
“I didn’t realize upping our relationship to phone buddies would come with a boyfriend title. Does that mean if we ever meet in person, we’ll have to get married?”
I even googled videos of people with Boston accents once.”
She laughed and I smiled again. Her laugh was my new favorite sound in the whole world.
“true beauty comes from inside a person. If you feel beautiful, then you’ll look beautiful to others no matter what’s on the surface.”
First of all, I am Ellamara’s best friend. Me. Not you, whoever you are. Me, me, me.”
“Ah, there’s my girl.”
The Easter Bunny could have come down the chimney armed with machine guns and opened fire on the house, and everyone would have been less surprised.
Her anger made me smile. It was the little things in life that counted.
A real man would have fought to be with the woman he loved—social class be damned.”
“Smile pretty, Ella,” Cinder chirped, giving me a gentle squeeze. “This is going to be my new desktop for my computer.”
Beside me on the bed, both Juliette and Vivian sighed. Rob sighed in response to their sighs.
“She is not a fan I met through a charity organization. Her name is Ella, and she’s my best friend.”
“There are only two kinds of women in the world for me now, Kenneth: Ella and Not Ella. I’ll never be able to settle for anyone but her, and now I’ve lost her again.”
“It’s more than love, Kenneth. I think she’s my soul mate.”
“She’s taken herself out of my life, and I can’t accept that. Ella belongs with me.”
“Ella, wherever you are, if you’re out there listening, I love you. You are my entire world. You’ve always said you thought Cinder was a coward for doing what the people expected of him instead of following his heart. Well, I’m not a coward. This Prince Cinder chooses his Ellamara. I choose you, Ella, and I’m not going to let you be a coward, either. I’m not going to let my fame scare you away. We’re Cinder and Ella, woman! We’re supposed to get our fairy-tale ending!”
I couldn’t believe it when he held up the long white gloves I’d taken off for him that day. I hadn’t even realized I’d left them. “These aren’t glass slippers,” Brian said, dangling the gloves in the air, “but if I have to try them on every girl in LA to find my princess, I will.”
AHHHH
“Forgive me, Ellamara, oh wise, mystic priestess of the Realm, and let me give you the ending you’ve always wanted.”
“You’re going to be fine,” Vivian said. “It’s just Cinder. You’re just going to see a movie with your best friend. That’s all.” “Yeah.” Juliette snickered and turned my head so that I was looking at the huge poster of a shirtless Brian she’d tacked to the back of my bedroom door. “And Cinder looks like that and wants to father your babies.”
“When you guys come up for air tonight, ask Brian if he can hook me up with Logan Lerman.”
“I plan on asking him to come help me haul boxes on moving day.” Vivian, Juliette, Ana, and even Jennifer all swooned a bit. “See if you can get him to do it without his shirt on,” Juliette said.
“How about, ‘And they lived happily ever after’?”
