Quotes by Allison Whittenberg (?)

“All abusive households operated like this, like POW camps. Our house revolved around two things: secrets and lies. It was always a matter of keeping quiet about what was going on. And never telling the truth. Make something up. Anything. Be consistent. Or not. It really didn't matter. No one wanted to make the leap. Connect the dots. Add up two plus two.”
― Allison Whittenberg, Killing the Father of Our Country: A Fierce and Haunting YA Novel
