"I'll read one book and be completely wild about it—I'll trust it, I'll assimilate it, I'll sympathize with it, I'll try to make it a part of my life. Then, I'll read another book and, instantly, I'll switch over to that one. The sly ability to steal someone else's experience and recreate it as if it were my own is the only real talent i possess"

"That word again—safe. But what is safe? Tombs are safe. Merilance was safe. Safe does not mean happy, does not mean well, does not mean kind"

The atmosphere is so beautiful

"I never managed to become anything more impressive than an unknown, second-rate cartoonist employed by the cheapest magazines"

I love how this book is so relatable to the darkest rotten parts in my bones and heart. I love how it shows feelings i never was able to describe; failure, dread, sadness, depression. how it shows me the parts that my brain mostly hides it from me so i don't acknowledge it

I really love it

It's so well-written
