Kindle Notes & Highlights
You, a girl. That’s what he meant. Like owning a vagina made me inferior in some fundamental way.
“You can dress up a pig, but it’s still a pig.”
In fact, over the last few hours I’ve repeatedly fantasized about grabbing my father’s gun and ending all our lives. And then I’d remember that my gun was confiscated. Probably for the best.
I mean, same girl!
I can’t wrap my mind around all the implications of being married to this man. Married. To my parents’ killer. Suddenly the food I ate earlier doesn’t seem like it’s content to stay in my stomach. I stop walking and breathe slowly. The king leans in so that he can peer into my eyes. “Are you alright?” I hold up a finger, and he patiently waits. The nausea passes, and I begin walking again. “What was that?” he asks. “It’s my body’s reaction to you.”

“I’m thinking that there are far more effective ways of killing myself than jumping out of a moving car through the window.” Seriously. I’d just use the door.
Cackling at the inner monologue
War tears down everything. Morals, loyalties, lives. Its aftershocks can ripple long after it ends.
“Everything that lives must eventually die.”

I laugh. “I don’t answer to you, Montes. You better fucking remember who you married.”
“Serenity means to be at peace,”
What you choose to do with all that anger is your business. But you can’t control the world; someone will always be there to wrong you. It’s your choice to let it go. Only you can decide the woman you want to be.”
