Quotes by Amy Jones (?)

“She wasn't fearless, she was brave. You can't be brave if you don't feel fear. What makes you brave is that you feel the fear, and you do it anyway.”
― Amy Jones, We're All in This Together

“It's not the who, what, where, when or how that people care about. It's the why.”

“There is no doubt that Kristine Laco is a super funny writer—just check out any of her online humour pieces if you don’t believe me—but what you might not expect is that she can also turn around and make you cry. In this memoir, Laco reveals her more vulnerable side as she shares her mental health struggles and the journey she undertakes to overcome them, all with her trademark humour and an openness and generosity that makes the reader feel as though they are part of the gang. This is a big-hearted, roller-coaster ride of a book, in which Laco shows the reader that even in the darkest times in our lives, there is light.”
― Amy Jones
