“I could die here, I thought. In the nicest sense. I could’ve died here, and it would’ve been the best I’d felt in ages. Not high and euphoric like when I got offered that job, but a true, simple, sober easiness, even sitting amid the refuse of my reality. A contentedness in simply being.”
― c.m. mckenna, Badger

“I wanted to know whether you could ever fully know someone. If knowing how they were—how they moved and spoke and the faces they made and the things they tried not to look at—amounted to knowing them.

― Emily Henry, Beach Read
