“That doesn’t count. Everyone’s read Harry Potter. It’s practically a childhood rite of passage.”

“These books were safe. Like an alternate, paper world where anything was possible. And after my parents' divorce, I gave up on love. I never wanted to fall into it or feel it because what was the point? These books let me feel it through other people. That way, I didn't have to worry about being hurt. It sounds dumb, but they helped. They helped me when nothing else could.”
― Alex Light, The Upside of Falling

“Could love really make the world stop? Why did it make every female character feel alive? Wasn’t she alive before she met him?”
― Alex Light, The Upside of Falling
