    “Take a drink every time you hear you’re not enough.
    Not the right fit.
    Not the right look.
    Not the right focus.
    Not the right drive.
    Not the right time.
    Not the right job.
    Not the right path.
    Not the right future.
    Not the right present.
    Not the right you.
    Not you.
    (Not me?)
    There’s just something missing.
    From us.
    What could I have done?
    Nothing. It’s just…
    (Who you are.)
    I didn’t think we were serious.
    (You’re just too…
    …sweet.
    …soft.
    …sensitive.)
    I just don’t see us ending up together.
    I met someone.
    I’m sorry
    It’s not you.
    Swallow it down.
    We’re not on the same page.
    We’re not in the same place.
    It’s not you.
    We can’t help who we fall in love with.
    (And who we don’t.)
    You’re such a good friend.
    You’re going to make the right girl happy.
    You deserve better.
    Let’s stay friends.
    I don’t want to lose you.
    It’s not you.
    I’m sorry.”
    V.E. Schwab, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue

    “Meeting you was a disaster.”
    She raised a brow. “Thank you.”
    Djel, he was terrible at this. He stumbled on, trying to make her understand. “But I am grateful for that disaster. I needed a catastrophe to shake me from the life I knew. You were an earthquake, a landslide.”
    “I,” she said, planting a hand on her hip, “am a delicate flower.”
    “You aren’t a flower, you’re every blossom in the wood blooming at once. You are a tidal wave. You’re a stampede. You are overwhelming.”

    “He needed to tell her...what? That she was lovely and brave and better than anything he deserved. That he was twisted, crooked, wrong, but not so broken that he couldn't pull himself together into some semblance of a man for her.

    Leigh Bardugo
    “Maybe there were people who lived those lives. Maybe this girl was one of them. But what about the rest of us? What about the nobodies and the nothings, the invisible girls? We learn to hold our heads as if we wear crowns. We learn to wring magic from the ordinary. That was how you survived when you weren’t chosen, when there was no royal blood in your veins. When the world owed you nothing, you demanded something of it anyway.”
    Leigh Bardugo, Crooked Kingdom
