I would read my negative bank statements with joy if Kamilah wrote them. Hooked from the very first chapter, saddened when I turned the page and reached the end. Would give my kidney to Ellory if she ever needed it.

Quotes by Elba Luz (?)

“am my own person. I make my own decisions. I decide what’s important to me. I decide what’s fair. I decide what I can tolerate. You always want to fix things before they break, so you don’t know this—but sometimes, breaking isn’t the end. Breaking lets people learn they can pick up the pieces, no matter how jagged, and put them back together in any way they want. Let people break, Lucy.” She places her hands on my cheeks. “Let yourself break.”
― Elba Luz, How to Ruin a Wedding

“you never know if the hug you give someone will be your last.”

“Your best friend is marrying your first love?” I shout, a burst of energy sliding through me. I grip his face in my hands. “Why are you here? Why would you subject yourself to this kind of agony? Are you a masochist?”
