Ann Brashares
She spilled rice on my knee, and she smiled. I wanted her to spill a thousand things on me, lava, acid, bricks, anything, and smile each time
Ann Brashares
Sometimes you couldn’t face the sadness of being forgotten until you felt the comfort of being remembered again.
Ann Brashares
There are going to be moments of deep, deep doubts, and you have to have faith that your initial idea was good and just muddle through.
Ann Brashares
