“It was strange, the idea that this book wasn't just for him, it was for everyone. All these people who had taken it out before him, people who would take it out after him. Every reader, unknowingly connected in some small way.”

“My dear, that is something you cannot control. When someone is grieving, the best thing you can do is let them heal on their own, and show them that you'll be there for them. I know it's hard, because you are a kind girl and want to help everyone. But sad people aren't objects to fix. Give them space and show them you'll still love them whenever they are ready to be loved.”

The black over blue
Yet the stars still dare
To shine for you”

“Maybe you can't help him, darling. I know you love him so, so much. I'm sure he loves you too. And I know you feel like it's your job to "save him". I know it feels like you are both each other's whole world, but that dependency isn't healthy for either of you. Charlie needs help from someone who isn't his sixteen-year-old boyfriend. He needs help from a doctor or a therapist, someone who knows about eating disorder and how to treat them. Love can't cure a mental illness. There are lots of ways to help him, you can just be there. To listen. To talk. To cheer him up if he's having a bad day. And on the bad days you can ask what to could do to make things easier. Stand by his side, even when things are hard. But also knowing that sometimes people need more support than just one person can give. That's love darling" - Sarah Nelson (Nick's mum)”
