Genre


Lani Forbes is the daughter of a librarian and an ex-drug smuggling surfer (which explains her passionate love of the ocean and books). A former teacher turned trauma counselor, her passion was showing readers the transformative and encouraging power of story on the human experience. A California native whose parents live in Mexico, Lani resided in the Pacific Northwest where she stubbornly wore flip flops no matter how cold it got. She was a proud nerd, Gryffindor, and member of Romance Writers of America and the Society for Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators. She passed away on February 3, 2022.

Quotes by Lani Forbes  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“You ran from your problems then and you ran a few weeks ago. Told yourself it was to protect me. I think you were scared. And your runnin' almost got you killed again. You keep trying to outrun the darkness behind ya, like night's closing in and you're dead set on chasing after the sun that's settin'. But the only way to catch the sun is to turn the other way. Face the night, run right through it. Catch the dawn on the other side.”
Lani Forbes, Face the Night

“For even the darkest of nights could not hold back the dawn.”
Lani Forbes, The Obsidian Butterfly

“The memories you are trying so hard to ignore are the reasons you are trying so hard. I think you can face the unknown future with confidence because the lessons you learned through your pain gave you the strength to do it.”
Lani Forbes, Master of Memories
