“To many, I was myth incarnate, the embodiment of a most superb legend, a fairy tale. Some considered me a monster, a mutation. To my great misfortune, I was once mistaken for an angel. To my mother, I was everything. To my father, nothing at all. To my grandmother, I was a daily reminder of loves long lost. But I knew the truth—deep down, I always did.
I was just a girl.”
― Leslye Walton, The Strange and Beautiful Sorrows of Ava Lavender

“Just because love don't look the way you think it should, don't mean you don't have it.”
― Leslye Walton, The Strange and Beautiful Sorrows of Ava Lavender

“When they both realized they were heartbroken enough to want the love torn from their rib cages, they touched each other with their hands and their mouths, and they forgot they wanted to be cured.”
― Anna-Marie McLemore, When the Moon Was Ours

“Love makes us such fools.”
― Leslye Walton, The Strange and Beautiful Sorrows of Ava Lavender
