She was the epic crush of my childhood. She was the tragedy that made me look inside myself and see my corrupt heart. She was my sin and my salvation, come back from the grave to change me forever.

No, said Luis, You can't date the Lord of the Night Court. Well, I'm not, he dumped me. You can't get dumped by the lord of the night court. Oh, yes, you can. You so completely can.
Holly Black
I wonder about death, I who may never know it. It looks much like ecstacy, the way they open their mouths as they drown, the way their fingers dig into your skin. Their eyes are wide and startled and they trash in your hands as though with an excess of passion.
Holly Black
Tana. In all my long life, though there were many times I prayed for it, no one has ever saved me. No one but you.
Holly Black
She looks honestly upset, but then, I’ve learned that I can’t read her. The problem with a really excellent liar is that you have to just assume they’re always lying.
Holly Black
I thought of how proud he was when he took the marks- cutting the skin of his throat in a long slash and then packing it with ashes until keloid scars rose up. He called it his second smile.
Holly Black
A girl like that, Grandad said, perfumes herself with ozone and metal filings.
