“Something was coming. Nola could feel it. She wanted to stop reading, but she couldn’t, because she could tell that this was the moment that would rip the boy’s life into a before and after. Fiction and reality. She knew the lesson that moment taught you – that everything you believed was yours, all the cinnamon toast and hugs and campfires, was just something you’d visited, not something you were guaranteed as a generic human being.”

“When Juliet worked with actors, she taught them the concept of de-roling, a way of stepping out of a character at the end of the day so you could return unencumbered to your other life. But the parenting role, once assumed, tended to stay put.”

“And it was then, looking down at the town, that William truly understood that he would never hear a new story, a new secret, from Abigail. He’d known the physical reality of that, of course. But this was a different understanding, more complicated and subtle. More literary, Abigail said in his head. Which only proved the point – that Abigail’s words now could only ever be things she had said, not things a future Abigail, altered by events that had not yet happened, would say.”

“Same skill, different origins. Same noun, different verbs. Anyone can love their mirror image; it’s the easiest thing in the world to love what you already know. But how do you love difference as if it’s a part of you?”

“Still, she kept listening, the voice of the actor and the voice of the book weaving together, becoming one. Sometimes the experience felt so dreamlike she almost fell asleep, but the words floated along with her until she came back and found them again.”
