Jami’s Notes & Highlights

Book cover for The Orphanage by the Lake

The Orphanage by the Lake by Daniel G. Miller

8 highlights

It’s not that I’m unattractive, it’s just that when you used to be better, everything about you feels worse.

“It's a bummer in some ways, since she never surprises me by making up my sheets anymore, or leaving folded laundry or a new sundress on my bed like she did when I was in middle school. But at least I know she's not rooting through my drawers while I'm at school, looking for drugs or sex toys or whatever.”
― Lauren Oliver, Before I Fall

“If you draw a circle, there will always be an inside and an outside, and unless you're a total nut job, it's pretty easy to see which is which. It just happens.”
― Lauren Oliver, Before I Fall

“He had curled himself up into a minature sphere in the farthest corner of the box, a fuzzy softball that would have fit eaisly into the palm of my hand.”
― Gwen Cooper, Homer's Odyssey
