I just recently finished Falling into place by Amy Zhang and all I could think about it. WHY? Why do you do this to me?
I don’t think I’m emotionally capable of writing a review for this book but it really hurt me. I’m crying now. It’s all your fault, you stupid book!

Sorry, sorry, back to the post huh?
I liked a few quotes from this book that I’d like to share.

It’s hard to lie when the truth is dying in front of you.

It wasn’t thе aloneness that Liz minded. It was the silеnce. It echoеd.

      –  Amy Zhang,  Falling into place.

Love, Alex 🙂

And from the inside, surrounded by the joy and devotion and loyalty of my friends, the shimmer of rage on the outside of our lives looks paper-thin.

I really enjoyed reading this book but I still like This Shattered World more.

“Maybe we needed to break a little, so we could put ourselves back together more beautifully than before.”

“This is what they don’t tell you about losing someone: It doesn’t happen once. It happens every day, every moment they’re missing from. You lose them a hundred times between waking and sleep, and even sleep is no respite, because you lose them in your dreams, too.”
           –Leah Raeder, Cam Girl

Leah Raeder is another one of my new found favorite authors. I recommend Black Iris to everyone. But Cam Girl was wonderful too.

I can quote Colleen Hoover a thousand times and say that she IS MY FAVORITE AUTHOR but it will never be enough. So here’s more…

“If I were a carpenter, I would build you a window to my soul. But I would leave that window shut and locked, so that every time you tried to look through it all you would see is your own reflection. You would see that my soul is a reflection of you.”

“I love being with yo so bad
When we aren’t together, I miss you so bad
One of these days I’m going to marry you so bad
and it’ll be
so
so
good.”

“Well, you would realize…
Like i eventually realized…
That the good things about her?
All the beautiful?
It’s not real.
It’s fake.
So you keep your ocean,
I’ll take the lake.”
― Colleen Hoover, Point of Retreat

This book was fantastic and the writing was so beautiful and heart-wrenching.

“I will not light myself on fire to keep you warm.”

“I’m about as perfect as a shattered mirror,”

“I’m free now instead of the caged wraith I was then. I know how to embrace my dark side, but it won’t consume me. I know where I’m going because of where I’ve been.”
Lily Paradis, Volition
