Alexis Schaitkin
“I saw then that he was drawn not just to me, but also to the dark potential all women in our town carried inside us, and I was startled to realize he feared me a little. I began to know what women here had always known: We were endangered, but we were dangerous, too; our peril was also our power.”
Alexis Schaitkin, Elsewhere

Sally Rooney
“Maybe we're just born to love and worry about the people we know, and to go on loving and worrying even when there are more important things we should be doing. And if that means the human species is going to die out, isn't it in a way a nice reason to die out, the nicest reason you can imagine? Because when we should have been reorganising the distribution of the world's resources and transitioning collectively to a sustainable economic model, we were worrying about sex and friendship instead. Because we loved each other too much and found each other too interesting. And I love that about humanity, and in fact it's the very reason I root for us to survive - because we are so stupid about each other.”
Sally Rooney, Beautiful World, Where Are You

Kate Baer
“For now just remember how you felt the day you were born: desperate for magic, ready to love.”
Kate Baer, What Kind of Woman

Emily Habeck
“I can't look at everything hard enough,' Lewis whispered into the stars again and again. The combination of words belonged to a character he would never play, but in that moment, he felt that the line had been written for him.”
Emily Habeck, Shark Heart

“We compare our thighs in the reflection of doors and people tell us that’s where our value lies.”
Jessica Andrews, Saltwater
