“I can listen to you talk nonsense for all hours of the day and never get sick of it. You told me once that getting to know you was work, and you were right. It’s the dream job I never knew I needed to have and I’ll willingly do it free of charge, for the rest of my life.”
― I.I.E., Dear Ana

“Well Beatrice, people can only hurt you if you let them.”

“Reading romance novels means I’m able to experience thousands of different love stories. I’ve had my heart broken and put together again in so many beautiful ways through words on a page. They’ve given me the chance to learn so much about myself and to escape to another world when reality becomes too much. I know I’m always guaranteed a happily ever after with these books, so they help keep loneliness at bay.”
― Jodi Oliver, Off Season

“I refused to fold myself into society’s version of the perfect damsel in distress, and if that meant my story would remain unspoken until it died with me then so fucking be it.”
― I.I.E., Dear Ana
