“It wasn’t that he'd really understood them, or even liked them much. But Logen had liked himself when he was with them. Out there in the deserted west of the World, he'd been a man you could rely on.

A man with no bloody history breathing on his shoulder, no name blacker than hell, no need to watch his back every moment. A man with hopes for something better”

“Play the man of stone for too long and you are left a man of straw”

“Brody had read about dry drowning. It was a lingering trick of the water, a sneak attack that could come for you hours later, after you assumed you were safe.

Maybe death had already played its hand, and he was walking on borrowed time. Like a slow-acing
poison.”

“You saved my life today. I know it”

He wasn’t happy about saying it, and Logen knew why.

“I like words.I like shaping them. I like how the stories you create can be kind and good, and I like how they can never fail you, if that’s how you make them.”

“A weak man can’t love a strong woman. He won’t know what to do with her”

New audio book and I’m already hooked

“I’d always written how grief was hollow. How it was a vase cavern of nothing.
But I was wrong.
Grief was the exact opposite. It was full and heavy and drowning because it wasn't the absence of everything you lost— it was the culmination of it all, your love, your happiness, your bittersweets, wound tight like a knotted ball of yarn.”

Oh this is fckd

“It was the story that got told and retold.
It was the one where she was young enough and white enough and pretty enough and rich enough that people paid attention.
It was the one where we were all young enough to think someone smarter had the answers.

Maybe it was the one we got wrong.”

Hey Sarah?

Whatthefuck
