Book cover for Nutcracker of Crystalfall (Fae and Crystal Thorns)
“If determination alone is not enough, it simply means you are trying to solve the wrong problem. We just have to figure out the right problem, and then we can succeed.”

Tabitha Carvan
“Don’t you think it’s a bit weird that when you’re dreaming, you can scare yourself? Really, how can you not know that someone’s going to leap out from behind the bushes, when it’s you who put them there? Conscious, unconscious, Freud, something something? I gues it’s the same thing with desires. They similarly exist inside you but can still take you by surprise.”
Tabitha Carvan, This Is Not a Book About Benedict Cumberbatch: The Joy of Loving Something--Anything--Like Your Life Depends On It

“I didn't want to have to pour concrete around my heart in an attempt to shield me from the blast.”
Jill Duggar, Counting the Cost

“Hasty headlines had been quick to proclaim the coup a 'failed attempt,' but I was not so sure. It was never really about votes, it was about views. The true site of power was not within the Senate walls: it was online, in the audience, in the engagement, in the algorithms. The coup was pure performativity, an event without a centre, familiar enough to any influencer accustomed to staging life via an iPhone.”
Olivia Yallop, Break the Internet: in pursuit of influence

Samara Breger
“And is immortality necessarily good?" Roisin asked mildly. "What will happen when everyone you love is gone? When you're alone, and nothing matters any longer because you don't have the prospect of your own mortality to give it weight?"

"Listen, I understand you've got an argument to make, but never in my life have I thought, 'You know what really makes this lemon cake delicious? Knowing that one day I will die.”
Samara Breger, A Long Time Dead

“Can I call it haunted when I'm every ghost?”
