    Lauren Oliver
    “You can build walls all the way to the sky and I will find a way to fly above them. You can try to pin me down with a hundred thousand arms, but I will find a way to resist. And there are many of us out there, more than you think. People who refuse to stop believing. People who refuse to come to earth. People who love in a world without walls, people who love into hate, into refusal, against hope, and without fear.

    I love you. Remember. They cannot take it.”
    Lauren Oliver, Delirium

    Lauren Oliver
    “Promise me we'll stay together, okay?" His eyes are once again the clear blue of a perfectly transparent pool. They are eyes to swim in, to float in, forever. "You and me."
    "I promise," I say.
    Behind us the door creaks open, and I turn around, expecting Raven, just as a voice cuts through the air: "Don't believe her.”
    Lauren Oliver, Pandemonium

    “Promise me we'll stay together, okay?" His eyes are once again the clear blue of a perfectly transparent pool. They are eyes to swim in, to float in, forever. "You and me."

    "I promise," I say.

    Behind us the door creaks open, and I turn around, expecting Raven, just as a voice cuts through the air: "Don't believe her."

    The whole world closes around me, like an eyelid: For a moment, everything goes dark.

    I am falling. My ears are full of rushing; I have been sucked into a tunnel, a place of pleasure and chaos. My head is about to explode.

    He looks different. He is much thinner, and a scar runs from his eyebrow all the way down to his jaw. On his neck, just behind his left ear, a small tattooed number curves around the three-pronged scar that fooled me, for so long, into believing he was cured. His eyes-once a sweet, melted brown, like syrup-have hardened. Now they are stony, impenetrable.

    Only his hair is the same: that auburn crown, like leaves in autumn.

    Impossible. I close my eyes and reopen them: the boy from a dream, from a different lifetime. A boy brought back from the dead.

    Alex.”
    Lauren Oliver, Pandemonium

    “Hearts are fragile things. That's why you have to be so careful.”
    Lauren Oliver, Delirium

    Lauren Oliver
    “And now I know why they invented words for love, why they had to: It's the only thing that can come close to describing what I feel in that moment, the baffling mixture of pain and pleasure and fear and joy, all running sharply through me at once.”
    Lauren Oliver, Delirium

    Leigh Bardugo
    “This is what love does. In the stories, love healed your wounds, fixed what was broken, allowed you to go on. But love wasn’t a spell, some kind of benediction to be whispered, a balm or a cure-all. It was a single, fragile thread, which grew stronger through connection, through shared hardship and trust.”
    Leigh Bardugo, Rule of Wolves

  • #23
    Leigh Bardugo
    “Maybe love was superstition, a prayer we said to keep the truth of loneliness at bay. (...)
    The stars looked like they were close together, when really they were millions of miles apart. In the end, maybe love just meant longing for something impossibly bright and forever out of reach.”
    Leigh Bardugo, Ruin and Rising

  • #24
    Leigh Bardugo
    “The darkling gently folded me in his arms. He pressed a kiss to the top of my hair 'I will strip away all that you know, all that you love, until you have no shelter but mine”
    Leigh Bardugo, Ruin and Rising

  • #25
    Leigh Bardugo
    “The boy and the girl had both known loss, and their grief did not leave them. Sometimes he would find her standing by a window, fingers playing in the beams of sunlight that streamed through the glass, or sitting on the front steps of the orphanage, staring at the stump of the oak next to the drive. Then he would go to her, draw her close, and lead her to the shores of Trivka's pond, where the insects buzzed and the grass grew high and sweet, where old wounds might be forgotten.
    She saw sadness in the boy too. Though the woods still welcomed him, he was separate from them now, the bond born into his bones burned away in the same moment that he'd given up his life for her.”
    Leigh Bardugo, Ruin and Rising

    Leigh Bardugo
    “I love you, Alina, even the part of you that loved him.”
    He grinned and my heart flip-flopped the way it always had.”
    Leigh Bardugo, Shadow and Bone

    Leigh Bardugo
    “That first winter, when it was time for her friends to leave, the girl ventured out into the snow to say goodbye, and the stunning raven-haired Squaller handed her another gift.
    "A blue kofta," said the math teacher, shaking her head. "What would she do with that?"
    "Maybe she knew a Grisha who died," replied the cook, taking not of the tears that filled the girl's eyes. They did not see the note that read, You will always be one of us”
    Leigh Bardugo, Ruin and Rising

    Leigh Bardugo
    “A gambler, a convict, a wayward son, a lost Grisha, a Suli girl who had become a killer, a boy from the Barrel who had become something worse.”
    Leigh Bardugo, Six of Crows

    Leigh Bardugo
    “I’m a very valuable investment.”

    “Tell me he didn’t say that.”

    “Of course he did. Well, not the valuable part.”
    “Idiot.”

    “How’s Matthias?”

    “Also an idiot.”
    Leigh Bardugo, Six of Crows

  • #30
    Leigh Bardugo
    “There was no part of him that was not broken, that had not healed wrong, and there was no part of him that was not stronger for having been broken. No one knew who he was. No one knew where he came from. He'd become Kaz Brekker, cripple and confidence man, bastard of the Barrel.
    The gloves were his one concession to weakness. Since that night among the bodies and the swim from the Reaper's Barge, he had not been able to bear the feeling of skin against skin. It was excruciating to him, revolting. It was the only piece of his past that he could not forge into something dangerous.”
    Leigh Bardugo, Six of Crows
