“If this is the best time of my life, I might as well end it immediately.”
― Alice Oseman, Solitaire

“In the end, that was the problem with romance. It was so easy to romanticise romance because it was everywhere. It was in music and on TV and in filtered Instagram photos. It was in the air, crisp and alive with fresh possibility. It was in falling leaves, crumbling wooden doorways, scuffed cobblestones and fields of dandelions. It was in the touch of hands, scrawled letters, crumpled sheets and the golden hour. A soft yawn, early morning laugher, shoes lined up together dy the door. Eyes across a dance floor. I could see it all, all the time, all around, but when I got closer, I found nothing was there.”

“I think it's better to just read and not study books.”
― Alice Oseman, Solitaire

“The aromantic and asexual spectrums weren’t just straight lines. They
were radar charts with at least a dozen different axes.”
― Alice Oseman, Loveless
