Carry On (Simon Snow, #1)

by Rainbow Rowell

(You have to pretend that you get an endgame. You have to carry on like you will; otherwise, you can’t carry on at all.)

It’s unnecessarily grandiose to use an “Open Sesame” on the doors, but I do it anyway because I know everyone will be in the dining hall, and I may as well make an entrance.

You were the sun, and I was crashing into you. I’d wake up every morning and think, ‘This will end in flames.’”
