“...I believe in magic, too. I know it's real. It's in the smell of a new book when you first open it. It's in opening a used book and seeing tiny notes made by people who read it before you, giving you a window to someone else's thoughts. It's in driving to the beach on a summer day and rolling down the windows to let in that warm, salty air. There's magic in hearing your favourite song on the radio, and suddenly your day is a whole lot brighter. There was so much magic, for me, in holding you for the first time, and loving you so much more every day after that. There's big magic in falling in love, and I hope you find that magic in abundance, with someone who appreciates how magical you are. The magic is in living. It's all magic, Kitten. Every bit of this world. And that includes you. Every bit of your. I Hope you never lose sight of that.”
Michelle Hebert, Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic

“There were three other times in my life when I’d woken up in a strange bed and didn’t know where I was or how I got there.”
