Thank you for reading the book! I would consider the character of Stella to be particularly angsty. She's depressed, apprehensive about change, and generally anxious about moving forward in her life. And because her angst is so internal and she's so insecure about what she's feeling toward Elizabeth, that angst definitely bleeds into their romance as well. I hope that helps!(less)

Oh golly, Miss Dolly

When I was four years old, I was Dolly Parton for Halloween. I’ve been in the Dolly Parton game a long time. My hair, which was already curly, was set in foam rollers the night before for some reason. I remember I had Lee Press On nails, big plastic pink hoops, some sort of neon get up and little cowboy boots. My mom glued my eyes shut when trying to put on the fake lashes.

I know you’re all wonder

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

“If Stella glanced over her shoulder, she'd see grief, depression, and loss. But when she looks forward, there's Elizabeth. The bees under Stella's skin, her bones, and her heart start to buzz and hum. She's alive now and actually living.

Maybe that feeling was simply hope, and it was fluttering inside her all along.”
Emily Waters, Honey in the Marrow
