It’s SO GOOD

“Just be kind to her.” “To that woman?” I pointed to the photos. “Yes.”

Omg… I laughed so hard but wanted to cry at the same time. If all the freaking characters I thought would bring me to tears I NEVER thought it would be HIM. It hasn’t happened yet but DAMN I bet it’s him. Shit!

“Yes. She did that. And this.” I couldn’t tear my eyes away from the brutality of the photos. “Don’t let her looks fool you. She is not here to fuck you; she’s here to make sure you play your role, and if you don’t, this could be you.”

She’s a fucking badass… don’t fuck with her or fuck things up for her.

Dan clicked another photo on the screen. It was a dead man. His mouth had been smashed in, and there was a bullet hole in the side of his head. I stepped closer to look at the gruesome photo. “Is that a fireplace poker?”

“If he doesn’t kill me, I’ll kill you.”

***fuck! Someone needs to!

When (she) was sixteen, she’d had this stupid quote stuck to her mirror. Something about one soul, two bodies. I thought it was silly. Then I fell in love with her. Now I understood it.

Can you be something other than a killer? Because I don’t think I can. I think it’s starting to consume me. It feels like a rot that sits in the pit of my stomach and it’s spreading.

Most of her pieces were knitting themselves back together. There were some missing; they were still in that **** apartment. There were always a few missing pieces.

*** I have a feeling she may never be whole again

There were moments—after the blood had been washed away and the cries of pain were nothing more than echoes—that she could shatter. It was brief, like the blink of an eye, but it was there. The moment where all her sins sat on her skin like a tattoo for her to see.

The prose that’s scattered within the pages of this book are both beautiful and heartbreaking
