Quotes:
That’s the thing about hearts. They don’t get put back together, not really. They just get patched. But the damage is still there.”

The problem with fairy tales isn't that they don't exist. It's that they do exist, but only for some people.”

In books, secret worlds are accessible by doors or keys or other physical objects. But Lovelorn was not such a world, and appeared at whim and only when it felt like it, with a subtle change like the slow shifting of afternoon to evening.”
