So excited to share I MIGHT BE IN TROUBLE with you!

Hello! I'm so thrilled to tell you my new novel, I Might Be in Trouble, is out today!

This is my favorite book I’ve ever written. The idea originated from feelings of loneliness and frustration at the way my life was going—but it quickly turned into the most joyful experience of my writing career so far. I MIGHT BE IN TROUBLE taught me it’s possible to turn bad things into positive ones, if only we Read more of this blog post »

My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh
“There was majesty and grace in the pace of the swaying branches of the willows. There was kindness. Pain is not the only touchstone for growth, I said to myself. My sleep had worked. I was soft and calm and felt things. This was good. This was my life now.”
Ottessa Moshfegh
My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh
“On September 11, I went out and bought a new TV/VCR at Best Buy so I could record the news coverage of the planes crashing into the Twin Towers. Trevor was on a honeymoon in Barbados, I'd later learn, but Reva was lost. Reva was gone. I watched the videotape over and over to soothe myself that day. And I continue to watch it, usually on a lonely afternoon, or any other time I doubt that life is worth living, or when I need courage, or when I am bored. Each time I see the woman leap off the seventy-eighth floor of the North Tower—one high-heeled shoe slipping off and hovering up over her, the other stuck on her foot as though it were too small, her blouse untucked, hair flailing, limbs stiff as she plummets down, one arm raised, like a dive into a summer lake—I am overcome by awe, not because she looks like Reva, and I think it's her, almost exactly her, and not because Reva and I had been friends, or because I'll never see her again, but because she is beautiful. There she is, a human ...more Ottessa Moshfegh

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

“There will always be people who think someone is worth less than they are because of what they look like or where they're from. But just because there are people who believe these things, it doesn't make any of it true.”
Daniel Alemán, Indivisible

“I have never regretted asking for help when I needed it. Sometimes, the only way to be strong is to let someone else carry some of the weight with you.”
Daniel Alemán, Indivisible

“It makes you wonder, doesn’t it? How much an author chooses the story they want to tell, and how much the story chooses them.”
Daniel Alemán, I Might Be in Trouble

“My gosh, Nick, why are you so wonderful to me?'

He was supposed to say: You deserve it. I love you.

But he said, 'Because I feel sorry for you.'

'Why?'

'Because every morning you have to wake up and be you.”
Gillian Flynn, Gone Girl

“Where you are is who you are. The further inside you the place moves, the more your identity is intertwined with it. Never casual, the choice of place is the choice of something you crave.”
Frances Mayes, Under the Tuscan Sun: At Home in Italy

“Do you know the most surprising thing about divorce? It doesn't actually kill you. Like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says "I never loved you," it should kill you instantly. You shouldn't have to wake up day after day after that, trying to understand how in the world you didn't know. The light just never went on, you know. I must have known, of course, but I was too scared to see the truth. Then fear just makes you so stupid.”
Frances Mayes, Under the Tuscan Sun: At Home in Italy

“I don't feel like Nick's wife. I don't feel like a person at all: I am something to be loaded and unloaded, like a sofa or a cuckoo clock. I am something to be tossed into a junkyard, thrown into the river, if necessary. I don't feel real anymore. I feel like I could disappear.”
Gillian Flynn, Gone Girl

“He promised to take care of me, and yet I feel afraid. I feel like something is going wrong, very wrong, and that it will get even worse. I don’t feel like Nick’s wife. I don’t feel like a person at all: I am something to be loaded and unloaded, like a sofa or a cuckoo clock. I am something to be tossed into a junkyard, thrown into the river, if necessary. I don’t feel real anymore. I feel like I could disappear.”
