“I'm asking you to forget everything you know about True Love. The real kind doesn't make you selfish and shortsighted. Real love makes you better than you ever knew you could be.”
― Leah Konen, The Romantics

“You could love someone, you could pick the right person, you could give your life to them, and you could. Still. Get. Hurt.”
― Leah Konen, The Romantics

“Books are supposed to remind you that life is hard for everyone. That other people have it even worse than you. I know you know, that because you love reading as much as I do.”
― Leah Konen, Love and Other Train Wrecks
