"You're neurotic and bossy and you can be fucking mean, and I've seen what you look like at rock bottom and I'm still here. When are you going to figure out that I'm not going anywhere?"

I was very excited to read this before, but after the author's note, I'm extra excited 🥲

"He looked at me like he wanted to destroy me, and I opened my legs to let the destruction in"

"Pretending has always been my best ability... the problem is that I can also fool myself... it's why I'm so good at denial. I feel as though, or, I fear as though, the curtain between reality and imagination is whisper thin in my mind."

Suddenly I feel a strong desire to be a little girl again. I want nothing more than for my mother to swaddle me, to rock me, to read me a story. I want her to tell me that the sorrow coursing through my veins and gushing out the corners of my eyes will stop one day... I want her to read me one of her daily quotes, the one about how grief is just love looking for somewhere to go.

When I tell you I am ob-sessed with the main character for how insane she is 😂 I read all this in a day

Whenever someone does something nice for me, I feel intensely aware of how strange and sad it is to know someone

Sometimes I wonder if I have really been the same person my whole life. I stare at the picture, and think: Is that really me? I have this bizarre feeling like I was a different person at every other stage of my life. I feel so removed from myself then. Sometimes I feel like I was a different person a month ago. A day. Five minutes. Now.

"I wish I could exist in this moment without carrying the baggage I've collected throughout my life."

😮‍💨

Okay waaaait. Darcy from this book and Enid from Interesting Facts About Space exist in the same universe and met before? 🤔

"The problem with you is I don't know when you're making fun and when you're serious."

"I am always both."

"When I thought about what we had, it didn't matter that it was friendship. I loved her."
