What happened to romance? Sappy, soppy longhand love letters.
Alex Flinn
Every girl pretends she is a princess at one point, no matter how little her life is like that.
Alex Flinn
I wrote poetry, journals, and, especially, plays for the neighborhood kids to perform. I had an ordinary, happy childhood. Nothing much was going on, but I had fun.

Anyone else feel like that? Like your life's a big act. Like you're trying to be a man when you're just a scared kid, trying to keep under control when you really want to scream, cry, or maybe hit someone. Ever feel like you're breathing underwater and you have to stop because you're gulping in too much fluid.
Alex Flinn
You are right. I have no idea, and it is none of my business, and I was taught to obey my parents. But sometimes it is just impossible to obey blindly. Sometimes a child must strike out on her own. A child cannot be a child forever, whether that means not touching a spindle or . . . or . . .
Alex Flinn
I was painfully shy, and I had tremendous difficulty making friends. So, lacking friends, I watched other people. Watching is something all writers must do, and it was in junior high that I learned to do it.
Alex Flinn
This isn't a fairy tale. It's New York City.
Alex Flinn
It would be so great to have someone my own age to talk to, even if it was just about books.
Alex Flinn
That's what true love should be like-the person should be part of your soul and you should know what they're feeling all the time.
Alex Flinn
People make such a big deal about looks, but after a while, when you know someone, you don't even notice anymore.
