cossette’s Notes & Highlights

Book cover for Everything I Know About Love

Everything I Know About Love by Dolly Alderton

22 highlights

“I have literally always been the kid who believes in fairy tales but I didn’t know what to do because I wasn’t a kid, I was a twenty-something in a cocktail bar who never feels old enough to drink”

“a paper star that has been unfolded and refolded
into a tiny unicorn but the unicorn remembers a time

a book and sometimes the unicorn dreams of the time before

before that when it was a different sort of star”

“Avery had previously thought love was built on large, visible gestures, but a marriage turned out to be the accrual of ordinary, almost inconsequential, acts of daily devotion—washing the mugs left in the sink before bed, taking the time to run up or downstairs to kiss each other quickly before one left the house, cutting up an extra piece of fruit to share—acts easy to miss, but if ever gone, deeply missed.”
― Coco Mellors, Blue Sisters
