Brianna’s Notes & Highlights

A Woman Is No Man by Etaf Rum

4 highlights

A daughter was only a temporary guest, quietly awaiting another man to scoop her away, along with all her financial burden.

“You have these lines you won’t cross. But then you cross them. And suddenly you possess the very dangerous information that you can break the rule and the world won’t instantly come to an end.”
― Taylor Jenkins Reid, Daisy Jones & The Six

“She asks me to kill the spider.
Instead, I get the most
peaceful weapons I can find.

I take a cup and a napkin.
I catch the spider, put it outside
and allow it to walk away.

If I am ever caught in the wrong place
at the wrong time, just being alive
and not bothering anyone,

I hope I am greeted
with the same kind
of mercy.”
― Rudy Francisco, Helium
