A Discovery of Witches (All Souls, #1)

by Deborah Harkness

It is a blessing as well as a burden to love so much that you can hurt so badly when love is gone.”

“With that kiss you have broken every rule that holds our world together and keeps us safe. Matthew, you have marked that witch as your own. And, Diana, you have offered your witch’s blood—your power—to a vampire. You have turned your back on your own kind and pledged yourself to a creature who is your enemy.”

You’re not the only dangerous creature in this room. But we have to learn how to be with each other in spite of who we are.”
