"With great dread, I begin to take Catríona's side and realise why Susannah was told to cover up. Anybody could drive past and see her now, with eyes even more advantageous than mine. I would drape my own soul over her body to protect her from eyes like mine." 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

"It's like she sensed me coming, like she could smell me from a mile away. Can she hear me before I speak?" I'm going to pass away.

I don't think I've ever related so much to character than I do Lucy, it's actually insane.

Oh my God, they start exchanging letters 😭😭😭😭 I'm unwell

"Maria flicks icing sugar at Susannah's face. They are sparkling, I am ignored. It's probably for the best. When she is close to happiness, I don't mind being a casualty." OH MY GODDDDDDD.

"My heart lurches, as if it wants to leave my awful body and go make a home in her." Ughhhh the longing is killing me

"My own feelings are a hedge of briars that I can't bring myself to touch. There are so many unhappy people, I just don't want to find out that I am one of them. They walk among us, they touch you, and you become them. Introspection is like cyanide. Life is fine this way, ignorance is easy, I do what is easy. Doesn't that make the most sense?" Lucy really be hitting this pose 🙉 I love her poor baby

I'm absolutely loving this book

"It's her spit in my mouth. It's her racing through my mind. I don’t mind it. It makes me sick. I like it." They shared a lollipop 🍭 omg

"Although at times their perfection amplifies it, the girls mainly keep me from thinking like this. Even when we exist as diametric opposites, I never feel lonely when I'm with them. Apart, we are weeds, but together, we are wildflowers, we make a beaufiful garden. We make each other. I wouldn’t make sense without them. I might not even exist." Made me think of my friends 🥹

"It's humiliating to wonder if I have ever meant the same things to her as she does to me." 😭😭😭 gosh why is this already destroying me

"There are times when it becomes so much that I can't stand to be around her. But there is something in her attitude that I am drawn to. Perhaps it is the way she hardly notices my admiration. Or the way that she can bully me or be my best friend and I can hardly tell the difference. Perhaps it is her moods, the glows and shadows of them, as though her heart is made of the changing sky."

"I think, I would be the microbes in the beef that her body seeks and destroys if it meant she would be paying me even the slightest bit of attention. The warmth and the wet of her mouth. (...) It makes perfect sense to want to be inside her mouth, to be torn to pieces by her; until I catch myself wanting it, and I am shocked, I am disgusted." Oh. My. God. The war flashbacks this gave me 😭 she is so me

Lucy's attention drifting from the conversation to focus on Susannah's mouth.... girl, your gay is showing sm lmao

"Now is the time between birth and slaughter. Another Summer has arrived. I spend days waiting for something to happen. Something glorious, even something tragic. Nothing ever happens". Well... if this book doesn't start off as strong in the gut then is it even worth it? Lmao same gurl 😔 nothing ever happens 😔

This book has finally arrived after days of being lost in traffic 😭 and now i must read it, poor thing

"If the study to which you apply yourself has a tendency to weaken your affections, and to destroy your taste for those simple pleasures in which no alloy can possibly mix, then that study is certainly unlawful, that is to say, not befitting the human mind." 🤔🤔🤔

"While my companion contemplated with a serious and satisfied spirit the magnificent appearance of things, I delighted in investigating their causes. The world was to me a secret which I desired to divine." I'm in love with her writing

"Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them." The fact that Frank Herbert wrote this in 1965.... Gives me goosebumps and makes me so afraid, because this is what's currently happening 😭
