oh my god… NICO

But this is what humans have always done. We segment ourselves based on race or class or religion or whatever fucking distinction we make up and then insist on treating each other differently. We never should have let them label us as long stringers or short stringers. We made it too easy for them.

I happen to know that a new Broadway show is currently in development. Writing, directing, acting, choreography, the whole shebang - all short stringers.

You can always count on the artists to step up, especially during a crisis.

And to do it in song.

Whenever the team discussed a shooting or a natural disaster, Deborah was struck by how lightly their words were tossed about. In her three decades as a journalist, as the headlines seemed to grow evermore grim, Deborah had seen the words shed their weight with each occurrence until they barely resembled the dense nouns and heavy adjectives that once pressed upon entire rooms.

The only winners here are the gun lobbyists and the politicians in their pockets. It's the first shooting in this country they can easily wash their hands of. Don't blame the guns, or the laws, or the healthcare system. Blame the strings.

“Hope doesn’t hurt you, Pepper,” she whispers. “People do. Hope lightens you and lifts you and expands more room in your heart than you know what to do with. And sharing that hope with someone that will care for it and tend to it like it deserves only lets it grow more and more.”

“I want your hope, Pepper. I’ll do everything in my power to protect that hope if you let me. Put it all on me.”

All the ACOTAR references in this are hilarious. 😆

Had a bit of anxiety during the first chapter of the book.

“Ever mine, it doesn’t matter where you live. As long as you want me, I’m yours.”

Gosh, I love - LOVE. Alex and Henry forever!!!

This book is so cute. The banter between Alex and Henry is too tier!!

We love an “act first, think later” queen. Really starting to love Diem as an FMC!

Looking at the reviews before I started this book, I saw some people say the FMC is a bit dumb. I just found out what they’re talking about. Jesus Christ this woman has never consumed ANY true crime media.

I’m getting such Pretty Little Liars vibes from this book and I love it.
