Grab a drink. Settle in. I've got a quick story for you.

It starts, as most good stories do, with someone chasing a feeling.

If you love thrillers, chances are you're not here for polite little stories where everyone makes good choices and learns an important lesson.

You're here for the escape. The secrets. The puzzle. The slow creep of wondering who's lying, who's watching, who's about to snap, and how bad things are going to get before anyone tells the truth.

That's the fun of it.

Maybe you read to slip out of your own life for a few hours and into someone else's bad decisions. Maybe you read to solve it before the protagonist does. Maybe you read because science says fiction is good for your brain, and you appreciate a vice that doubles as se ...more

Quotes by Britney King (?)

“With us, there were always too many false starts. I believe that what's meant to be usually has a way of working out... and with us, it never did. Call it timing, call it fate, call it what you want. It is what it is. Sometimes in the end, the girl doesn't always get the boy--and that's ok. Life goes on. You know better than anyone that some love stories never get their happy ending... but it doesn't make them any less of a love story though, does it? It doesn't make the love the two shared any less relevant.”

“Sometimes... I feel like I can't picture him anymore. Like I'm forgetting him... I forget the way he looked when he smiled. The sound of his voice. The way his hand felt wrapped around mine. And it hurts so badly, Jack. It hurts so fucking bad. Sometimes, it's so painful I can't breathe. Like the pain just sucks all of the air out of me... until there's nothing left. I don't want to forget. I really don't. But I don't know what to do. I don't know how to make it stop. It hurts to remember. But it hurts even more to forget.”

“Do you ever think of quitting, Jack?” He studied her face, not quite sure what she meant. “Quitting what? “Life.” Jack shifted his whole body toward her then. “Amelie. What in the fuck are you talking about?” he demanded. “You know, doesn’t it all feel like too much sometimes? Like it just takes so much effort… and you’re not sure you have it in you to keep going. I think maybe I just feel too much. I feel so much all at once sometimes that it’s overwhelming. So much joy. So much pain. And I just want to tap out, you know. To numb it. Or make it go away… I don’t know. For once, I’d like to know what it would be like to feel nothing at all.”
