"Simultaneously jealous of people who are reading for the first time and don’t know what’s going to happen and pretty sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t know what to expect." — Oct 08, 2025 06:23AM

Lindsey’s Quotes

“It was impossible to feel alone in a room full of favorite books. I had the sense that they knew me personally, that they’d read me cover to cover as I’d read them.”
― Riley Redgate, Noteworthy

“But you know, there’s an upside here. Because when you spend so much time just intensely wanting something, and then you actually get the thing? It’s magic.” All”

“But you know, there’s an upside here. Because when you spend so much time just intensely wanting something, and then you actually get the thing? It’s magic.” All of a sudden, I feel like crying. In a good way. In the best way. Because I know exactly what she means. It’s butterflies and haziness and heart eyes, but underneath all that, there’s this bass line of I can’t believe this. I can’t believe this is me. I can’t quite articulate the sweetness of that feeling. It’s finding out the door you were banging on is finally unlocked. Maybe it was unlocked the whole time.”
― Becky Albertalli, The Upside of Unrequited

“White supremacy is as much about mindless habits of white privilege as it is about active beliefs. It is about impact, not simply intent.”
― Dennis Johnson, What We Do Now: Standing Up for Your Values in Trump's America

“I didn’t read to escape. I didn’t even read to be entertained. It was more elemental, more essential than that. I read because imagination was the only thing that elevated me beyond my own reality. To look at my world as my only plane of existence was so limiting, and a little depressing. I needed the boundless worlds I found in good fiction. I could stare at the characters and obsess over them. But they couldn’t stare back. They couldn’t ask me any questions, or know me. They couldn’t ever love me but they couldn’t judge or reject me, either. They couldn’t react to me. It was kind of like stalking, but a character in a novel can’t get a restraining order.”
― Katie Ray, Don't Kiss the Messenger
