"This book is so much better than I anticipated when I picked it up off the library shelf. Abbie is a wonderful protagonist and she's easy to relate to, despite being from the 1880s. The inclusion of the Pre-Raphaelite brotherhood thrilled me and definitely fleshed out the world at that time. I can't wait to finish this amazing book!" — Feb 13, 2014 10:33AM

“Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.”

“It's being here now that's important. There's no past and there's no future. Time is a very misleading thing. All there is ever, is the now. We can gain experience from the past, but we can't relive it; and we can hope for the future, but we don't know if there is one.”

“I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next.
Delicious Ambiguity.”
