If You Still Recognise Me by Cynthia So

I wonder how adults learn to live with this feeling that the past is always growing bigger, that you’re always losing more of yourself to it.

@addictedforbooksquad‘s event: DAY TWO - la douleur exquise

↳Cas and Swift; The Abyss Surrounds Us

“Equal footing?”

                                                                                               “Equal footing.”

She holds me so tightly my armor warps under her grip, and I kiss her with everything I have left. There’s no time for hesitation, no time for uncertainty.

There’s just me and her, and the rest of it falls away.

trcc’s wednesday edits - goodbye perfect by sara barnard

“Sometimes it just takes that one person to see beyond what everyone tells them they're meant to see.”

“Technically, I’m a murderer, but I like to think that’s one of my better qualities.”

just juliet by charlotte reagan

The draw I felt to Juliet was a different beast altogether. It was chemical. All consuming. Twisting my thoughts around and making my heart beat in weird patterns. I hated it.

- ̀wlw books ̖́- dating sarah cooper by siera maley

“and i didn’t realize it then, as sarah and i left the parking lot and sped down the road in her little four-door, but i think that by the end of that very first school day I’d already fallen a bit in love with her.”

Read in 2017 » Far From You by Tess Sharpe

     “It was Mina this whole time, wasn’t it?”      I give him the only thing I can: the cold, hard truth. The one that’ll rewrite every memory he has —of him and me, her and me, the two of them, all three of us: “It’ll always be Mina.”

[shirewalker]

                                                       “especially                                                         when it involves safeguarding                                                         my poor feminine sensibilities                                                         from life-saving information”

Felix Ever After by Kacen Callender

It's like it's too much for other people–me having brown skin, and being queer, and being trans on top of that…or, maybe that's just what I tell myself because I'm too afraid to put myself out there again, too afraid of being rejected and getting hurt. Maybe it's a little bit of both.

DAY THREE: favorite mystery book - Far From You

❝There’s this long road ahead. It’s never-ending, because you don’t get over losing someone. Not completely. Not when she was a part of you. Not when loving her broke you as much as it changed you.❞

YA LIT MEME: Favorite Protagonists [1/5] → Yael, The Wolf by Wolf / Blood for Blood Duology by Ryan Graudin ↳“Once upon a different time, there was a girl who lived in a kingdom of death. Wolves howled up her arm. A whole pack of them--made of tattoo ink and pain, memory and loss. It was the only thing about her that ever stayed the same.”
