Quotes by Kendra Leighton (?)

“The sun had dipped below the horizon and the sky was almost entirely pencil-lead grey. It felt like the normal world had followed the sun over the horizon too, leaving me in this cold, dark universe that made no sense.”
― Kendra Leighton, Glimpse

“You may not feel now that there’s a purpose to what you’ve been through, but somewhere along the road, you’ll reach a place you couldn’t have travelled to by any other route, and you’ll be grateful for it.”
― Kendra Leighton, Glimpse

“I saw ghosts, I had nightmares, I worried my dad, but I had friends and a boy who loved me. I’d wanted a future, and now I had the prospect of one so bright, it was blinding.”
― Kendra Leighton, Glimpse
