Marisa Kanter is the author of modern love stories for both teens and adults.

Quotes by Marisa Kanter  (?)

“I don’t know what to say.

That’s the problem with words. In my head, words are magic. My thoughts are eloquent and fierce. On the page, words are music. In the clicks of my keyboard, in the scratches of pencil meeting paper. In the beauty of the eraser, of the backspace key. On the page, the words in my head sing and dance with the precision of diction and the intricacies of rhythm.

Out loud? Words are the worst.”
Marisa Kanter, What I Like About You

“First, my books need to breathe–in alphabetical order, by genre.”
Marisa Kanter, What I Like About You

“It’s knowing the world might be a trash fire, but it’s less trash when there are people to help navigate the darkness.
Friendship is messy. Hard. Infuriating. Awesome. Fragile. Durable. Impossible. Worth it.
Always worth it.”
Marisa Kanter, What I Like About You
