    Kasie West
    “Silence is kind of awkward, don’t you think?” he said.

    Oh. Or not. “No. I’m okay with silence. We’re in a library after all. This is the birthplace of silence.”

    “The library is the birthplace of silence?” David asked.

    “All the words are being used by the books. When I was little, that’s what I used to think. That people were told to be quiet so that all their words didn’t get stolen by the books. I thought books needed words to exist. Well, obviously they do, but I thought they needed spoken words. Yeah … I was always weird.”

    “And here I thought libraries were quiet because people were trying to study,” David whispered.

    “That might be another explanation.”
    Kasie West, P.S. I Like You

    “I nodded toward Cade’s wrist. “I’m sorry.”

    “It’s fun. I get a man bracelet.”

    I smiled. “I don’t think you get to keep it. She’s just using you as her model.”

    “Her model?”

    “It’s a fact, not a compliment.”

    “Because if you gave me a compliment you might have a stroke.”

    I laughed. “Probably not a stroke, but my brain would definitely revolt in some way.”

    He didn’t laugh along with me, just looked at the cording on his wrist.

    “Oh, stop, you don’t need me to tell you that you’re hot to know that it’s true.”

    “Are you okay? Did that hurt your head?” Cade asked.

    I kicked his foot with mine and he laughed.

    “So you think I’m hot?” Cade’s eyes sparkled.

    “Doesn’t every girl?”

    It surprised me when his cheeks turned a light shade of pink. I wasn’t sure why that embarrassed him in any way. I was positive he already knew it. He ran one hand through his hair. Then he said, almost too quiet for me to hear, “You’re not every girl.”
    Kasie West, P.S. I Like You

    “I wrote a book. It sucked. I wrote nine more books. They sucked, too. Meanwhile, I read every single thing I could find on publishing and writing, went to conferences, joined professional organizations, hooked up with fellow writers in critique groups, and didn’t give up. Then I wrote one more book.”
