That moment, she told Cath, when you realize that a guy's looking at you differently - that you're taking up more space in his field of vision. That moment when you know he can't see past you anymore.

More quotes by Rainbow Rowell
I'm sort of...coming off a bad relationship, When did it end? Slightly before it started.
Rainbow Rowell
What are the chances you’d ever meet someone like that? he wondered. Someone you could love forever, someone who would forever love you back? And what did you do when that person was born half a world away? The math seemed impossible.
Rainbow Rowell
I tend to write about my anxieties - it's what I'm afraid will happen. And I write a story working it out.
Rainbow Rowell
He already knows what I look like, Cath said. There's no point in being tricky about it now. How is doing your hair--and maybe putting on some lip gloss--being tricky? It's like I'm trying to distract him with something shiny.
Rainbow Rowell
Things get better--hurt less--over time. If you let them.
Rainbow Rowell
Are you on drugs? No. Maybe you should be.
Rainbow Rowell
How do you feel when I smile at you? he asked - and then he did smile at her, just a little. Not like myself, Cath thought. Like an idiot, she said softly. And I never want it to stop.

I think as an author you have to allow a movie to be separate from the book. It's an entirely different animal. I almost never mind when a movie changes or cuts something - as long as it helps the film work better.
Rainbow Rowell
Nothing before you counts, he said. And I can't even imagine an after. She shook her head. Don't. What? Don't talk about after. I just meant that... I want to be the last person who ever kisses you, too.... That sounds bad, like a death threat or something. What I'm trying to say is, you're it. This is it for me.
Rainbow Rowell
You're never going to find a guy who's exactly like you - first of all, because that guy never leaves his dorm room.
Rainbow Rowell
You know, he said, I keep wanting to say that it's like Simon Snow threw up in here... but it's more like someone else ate Simon Snow—like somebody went to an all-you-care-to-eat Simon Snow buffet—and then threw up in here.
Rainbow Rowell
I don't know if I even believe in that anymore. The right guy. The perfect guy. The one. I've lost faith in the. How do you feel about a and an? Indifferent. So you're considering a life without articles?
Rainbow Rowell
I want everyone to meet you. You're my favorite person of all time.
Rainbow Rowell
All of her bones seemed more purposeful than other people’s. Like they weren’t just there to hold her up, they were there to make a point.
Rainbow Rowell
I think he just gets like this sometimes. Like he needs to pull away. I think of it like winter. During winter, it isn't that the sun is gone (or cheating on you with another planet). You can still see it in the sky. It's just farther away.

Eggnog reminds me of mucus. Me, too. But in a good way.
Rainbow Rowell
Holding Eleanor’s hand was like holding a butterfly. Or a heartbeat. Like holding something complete, and completely alive. As soon as he touched her, he wondered how he’d gone this long without doing it. He rubbed his thumb through her palm and up her fingers, and was aware of her every breath.
Rainbow Rowell
Maybe he was Filipino. Was that in Asia? Probably. Asia's out-of-control huge.
Rainbow Rowell
I just want to break that song into pieces and love them all to death.
Rainbow Rowell
It felt good to be writing in her own room, in her own bed. To get lost in the World of Mages and stay lost. To not hear any voices in her head but Simon's and Baz's. Not even her own. This was why Cath wrote fic. For these hours when their world supplanted the real world.
