What glitters may not be gold and even wolves may smile and fools will be led by promises to their deaths.
Lauren Oliver
Image
It's as though the words are trapped, buried under past fears, past lives, like fossils compressed under layers of dirt.

No guy in his right mind would ever choose me when there are people like Hana in the world: It would be like settling for a stale cookie when what you really want is a big bowl of ice cream, whipped cream and cherries and chocolate sprinkles included.
