As strange as it sounds, nothing makes me prouder of myself than knowing that somebody cried while reading one of my books. It's a powerful thing to be able to bring out emotions with what is essentially 'just words', but if you actually invest so much into the story that you cry when something happens, well, that's a job well done.(less)

I love JEM.
I open up one of her books and immediately feel like it's a cozy Sunday morning and I have nothing to do but read all day.

Having said that... this one wasn't it for me.
Maybe because it's from the H POV which I normally am a huge fan of b

3 stars because I read all 4 books in one weekend and it was a nice break from listening to books.

Annoyed that it took forever to get to the reveal which was obvious from the very first chapter.

There were so many ways to handle that particular reve

“You must be Lilith,”
“You have got to be fucking with me.”
― Rachel Spanswick, Fading - Episode 1

“How can you be falling for me if you already love me?”
“Because, even though a part of me deep down inside loves you, I’m not in love with you. What I’m trying to say is that having you back in my life these last few weeks has been amazing. It reminds me of everything I loved about you, you’ve reminded me of the boy I used to be in love with. So, I guess what I’m trying to say is that I want you back in my life but you should know up front that if you stick around, I’m probably going to end up being in love with you again, so if that’s something that you don’t want, I need you to tell me now.”
― Rachel Spanswick, Fading

“If there’s one thing, the only thing that you taught me, Jason, it was that you can’t help who you fall in love with, just like you can’t force someone to love you back.”
― Rachel Spanswick, Fading

“There will always be someone, a friend, a relative, a co-worker even, just someone, who will be willing to try that bad thing with you. And they won’t judge you, so don’t worry about that.”
― Rachel Spanswick, Fading - Episode 1

“If you’ve ever lost someone that you love, and I say ‘love’ and not ‘loved’ because even when they’re gone, you still love them, you know that never goes away, but your life changes.”
― Rachel Spanswick, Fading
tags: loss, love

“. “You think you know me?”
“Jason,” I sigh loudly. “I probably know you better than you know yourself unfortunately.”
― Rachel Spanswick, Fading

“As much as you might hate me, you can’t change the fact that I know you, Lily. And no matter how many times you say you’re fine and everything is good, you should remember that I know when you’re lying.”
― Rachel Spanswick, Fading

“You must be Lilith,”
“You have got to be fucking with me.”

I am hoping that in creating this group I can help writers find someone to proof read their book. All books will be accepted.
