Flying through this because it’s still just as good as the first time I read this🤭🤭🤭

Continuing on with the rereads🤗

”Weird how I always believe a giant cup of coffee will imbue me with motivation and a sense of purpose... But over the last fiveish years, I’ve consumed more than sixteen hundred cups of coffee and I’m still in the prologue. I do not begin my life; I merely continue existing.”

”Sam Pulaski 1.0 exists in an alternate timeline, where the world didn’t collapse in 2020. She’s getting her PhD, doing research in Europe, presenting at conferences, having dramatic love affairs with men named Luca or Henri.”
Wow okay real as hell🤪

”My intentions are good. Every night, as I’m setting all those alarms, I visualize myself rising with the sun, showering immediately, putting on clothes that don’t involve elastic waistbands or drawstrings, and tidying up the office. That’s the best version of me.”

y’all I’ve devoured this book today🍴

it’s the way he’s always so casually pressing a kiss to her temple🫠🫠🫠🫠

Boo🍅🍅🍅 I hate this trope so much🥱

”And I may have to live with that, for the rest of my life. There’s a chance that I will have to wake from my dreams of her to face the lonely reality of her absence every day from now until forever. And I would do it, happy in the torture. I would let my heart break over and over again just to have moments in my sleep spent with her. I would carry the pain with me every day.”

”And I reminded myself, over and over, how lucky I am to have found love. Even if it cannot stay.”

”I’m terrified that I could go on to have a full life with a marriage, children, and even grandchildren, but my last breaths would be spent with the memory of Milo asleep on my chest.”

”Deep in my soul I know that if someone were to ask me to be their wife someday, my first thoughts would be of Milo. Not wondering if he’d be coming back, because I can’t afford that hope, but instead what he’d think of it all. If he would like the man down on one knee. If he would laugh at his jokes or find him handsome or think he was worth my time.”

”I decide at this moment to no longer care about what may come. That this, whatever she allows us to be, will fulfill and sustain me for the rest of my days. That I’ll live a thousand lives between her sheets, in her presence, with her laughter, if she’ll let me. Damn the rest of the world. Damn everyone else. She is where I want to be and I’ll build my life next to hers, if she wants me to.”

”Two passing ships cannot share an anchor, no matter how much they try.
No matter how much they’d like to float idly, they cannot.
And they’ll still wish for more, no matter the wreckage.”

Wait I’m kinda eating this up🤭🤭

”At first, James looks surprised. Then his turquoise eyes fill with an emotion I’ve seen before but couldn’t place. Now I know what it is: yearning.”

Y’all🫠🫠🫠

I missed them🤭🤭🤭

”Ever hear a song for the first time and you don’t know the words, but the music is really familiar? … You’re that song. I don’t know any of the words, but the tune is so damn familiar.”
