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

“Women have always been cast as caretakers, peacekeepers, and forgivers. We’re told to endure, to adapt, to rise above. But sometimes, the only way to heal is to rage. Sometimes, justice isn’t quiet or clean; it’s feral and bloody and unapologetic.”
Mia Ballard, Shy Girl

“Comfortable is dangerous. Comfortable keeps you asleep when the house is on fire.”
Mia Ballard, Shy Girl

“The meticulous nature of my planning was not born of malice but of necessity. It was a declaration of independence, a refusal to be the victim in a narrative where I had always seen myself as the heroine. The plan was my salvation, my catharsis, a way to sever the rot before it consumed me whole. Killing Dean, in theory, was not about ending his life; it was about reclaiming mine. It was about staring into the abyss of my own despair and choosing, instead, to rewrite the ending.”
Mia Ballard, Sugar
