"If you'd kept them closed then," he said, "you wouldn't have to open them wide now."

GRADY IF YOU KILL THIS MAN MY LIFE WILL BE YOURS

"As talented as I'm sure your pediatrician is," he said, "this is a job for an actual doctor. We're concerned with the health of your baby, darling, not your blushing modesty."

I hate this man and I want to stomp on him

This book is UNHINGED - Rose is now violently passing gas (The multiple toots were described as as foghorn sound, a mouse screaming and a flappy trumpet) while Fern is crying about being abandoned.

"The Bible also says that if you give birth to a baby girl you're unclean for sixty-six days," Rose said. "Do you believe that?"

I am not religious and I have not read the Bible, but this seems baffling that Women become unclean because they gave birth to a girl

"Their bellies stuck out, they displayed their disgrace, they flaunted their sin."

It's so upsetting reading young women thinking of themselves as walking sins

"The pain of childbirth is Eve's curse. A reminder that you are her because your broke two of the Ten Commandments - committing adultery and dishonouring your mother and father - and this suffering is your penance."

I want to take all these girls somewhere safe and anyway from every single adult in this book

Neva's dad better die at the end of this book or I'll do it

"Neva wanted to hug her. She wanted Hazel to tuck her into bed. She wanted to follow her around for the rest of her life."

Neva you deserve so much more

"She held her left hand up near her belly so they could all see the ring on her finger, but she was fifteen years old and six months pregnant..."

It horrifies me to think that no one really protected these children

"Her mom had always told her she was going to ruin her grades by spending too much time on dramatics, she was going to ruin her eyes by reading in the dark, ruin her reputation by riding in a car with boys, ruin her figure by eating two desserts, and every time she did it anyway and nothing has ever happened, but now she'd finally done it."

She is fifteen, in an age where society hates every cell in a woman's body.

"But that was the thing about lessons: They were always learned too late."

I have something in my eye

"She was the sun to his moon. The promise of warmth after an eternal winter."

I am so soft Aris and Blythe

I look the Pikachu meme where he is shocked because what the heck I did not expect Percy

"You are the girl who cannot die, and I am the girl who will continue to live. There will be periods of our lives when we may not have other, but you and I are destined."

Blythe and Signa's relationship is so beautiful and I just want to bundle them

"He would spend every minute plucking the stars from the sky to deliver a bouquet of constellations if that's what it took to please her."

This was a perfect sentence to read of Valentine's Day

WE GET AN ARIS POV?

Aris you are a Deity and all you could think of a name for a Fox was Beasty?!

Lightly confused but I'm ready for the chaos

"I have spun a Kingdom out of thin air. I have fed you and tolerated you, and have put up with all your nonsense. But this is where I draw the line."

I would also draw the line at charades

I knew Blythe was Bisexual, us Bi beings can sense one another

"Burn as brightly as the sun if you wish, Aris, but I will not look away."

Have I told you I love Blythe because I love her

"She looked like a dragon within the depths of its lair, hoarding treasures from all who dared approach."

Me hoarding my books

"But know that you are my world, Blythe. You are my proudest accomplishment, my heart and my soul."

Is this what having a Father is like?

"Signa, in part, had always reminded Blythe of an owl. Her eyes are unnervingly large, and whenever she was lost in thoughts she often forgot to blink."

I am so glad Blythe is affirming to me that Signa is a lil weirdo, loveable weirdo, but a weirdo all the same

I bloody knew it I'm a genius

HAHAHAHA YES GIRLY

"Because you deserved to live. You deserve the world, Blythe, and I hope that you take it."

Sorry currently feeling emotional over my favourite girls

"For as long as you'll have me, you are mine, Signa Farrow. I will burn this world to cinders before I let anyone take you from me."

The smut in this book is unnecessary when lines like this make my heart flutter
