“Nessa had never really felt truly beautiful before, but tonight she not only understood that she was beautiful, she understood that everyone was. That for all the competition and fear and knowing that the next runner was coming up behind you, she had been missing out on how beautiful life could be. She should have been watching and appreciating others instead of waiting inside herself for the right time to shine. The time was now.”
― C. D. Bell, Weregirl

“Good thoughts yield good things. The future, no matter how dark it seems, can always change, as long as the thoughts change.”
― R.A. Montgomery, Forecast from Stonehenge

“Everything was glowing and shining, and she herself was flying inside that glow. She could do anything. Be anything.”
― C. D. Bell, Weregirl

“The familiar (if loud) churn of the engine made it hard to talk, especially with the windows open (the air-conditioning didn’t work), but the day was warm and they blasted the music and sang along. Nessa loved singing at full volume. She couldn’t carry a tune, but with Bree it didn’t matter.”
