I'm probably getting too old for this kind of stuff.

“I know life well enough to know you can’t count on things staying around or standing still, no matter how much you want them to. You can’t stop people from dying. You can’t stop them from going away. You can’t stop yourself from going away either. I know myself well enough to know that no one else can keep you awake or keep you from sleeping.”

“Jesper knocked his head against the hull and cast his eyes heavenward. “Fine. But if Pekka Rollins kills us all, I’m going to get Wylan’s ghost to teach my ghost how to play the flute just so that I can annoy the hell out of your ghost.”

I don't get why everyone is after Brekker! I like Jesper a whole lot better. :P

"It’s difficult to know when love blooms; suddenly one day you wake up and it’s in full flower. It works the same way when it wilts—one day it is just too late."

He just writes so beautifully.

Is it just me or the option to update your reading progress of the books you are reading currently is gone? It has disappeared since yesterday! How am I supposed to update it then? :\

“A face is like reading a palm. More than the features you’re born with, a face is gradually formed over the passage of time, through all the experiences a person goes through, and no two faces are alike.”

I wonder how much more I would have enjoyed the book if I had the faintest idea about these video games! ._.

All Days Wound. Last One Kills.

I like it. XD

Only if I could read faster! 😭

It feels more like I'm revising what I have already read elsewhere, not that I'm learning something new.

“We all owe death a life.”

Gaining some pace, finally!

Oh! I'm loving this book!!!! :D

So far, so good! :D

Eerie.

Creepy.

"For years, my life has been flat. I’m not sure how else to describe it. I’ve never admitted it before. I’m not depressed, I don’t think. That’s not what I’m saying. Just flat, listless. So much has felt accidental, unnecessary, arbitrary. It’s been lacking a dimension. Something seems to be missing."

Somehow this book is really getting to me.

“We always think there's enough time to do things with other people. Time to say things to them. And then something happens and then we stand there holding on to words like if.”
― Fredrik Backman

"Ove had never been asked how he lived before he met her. But if anyone had asked him, he would have answered that he didn’t."
- Fredrik Backman, A Man Called Ove

This book is going to break my heart. I can feel it. :/

I'm actually, literally scared! Not because what might happen in the book but because it occurs to me that in all probability these kind of people actually exist! What kind of a world are we living in?
