“The first time I let myself fall, it wasn’t hot at all. It was cold. January. There was ice on the sidewalks— at least, that’s what I’d heard. But this girl felt like nectarines and balconies to me. She felt like everything. She felt like a long winter, then a nervous spring, then a sticky summer, and then those last days you never thought you’d get to, the ones that spread themselves out, out, out until they feel like they go on forever. So, August is a person.”

“But the truth is, also, simply this: love is indomitable.”
― Casey McQuiston, Red, White & Royal Blue

“Do you ever feel like you’re only ever watching? I ask Declan. Never really participating. Never really doing. Just always watching.”
― Kacen Callender, Felix Ever After

“Yeah. I don’t know, I always feel like I can’t figure out how to just stop watching and actually join.”
― Kacen Callender, Felix Ever After
