Camila’s Notes & Highlights

Book cover for The Darkest Temptation (Made, #3)

The Darkest Temptation (Made, #3) by Danielle Lori

54 highlights

Camila’s Quotes

“When I was little, she had been a walking flame, but fire requires feeding and either my mother didn't know how to sustain herself or had stopped working at it. Over the years she starved and shrank until she was a matchstick, a short burst that quickly chewed down the wood and inspired no warmth.”
― Roshani Chokshi, The Last Tale of the Flower Bride

“We are two blues, the neat seam of dusk and dawn.
We share a sky, if not a soul, and yet we are cut of the same shades.”

“I am scared of you," she said in a quiet voice. "You terrify me, and that is how I know I love you... but you're not scared of me at all, are you?”

“Like this life is one grand test and if we grow up wrong, then we'll end up as Cast-Out Susans."

Her mouth pinched at the idea. That week, Indigo and I had finished rereading The Chronicles of Narnia and were once again obsessed with Susan Pevensie. A queen locked out of the real she'd once ruled, exiled for the crime of growing up.
Susan Pevensie was our nightmare.”
― Roshani Chokshi, The Last Tale of the Flower Bride
