  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #1

    ...crackers... a voice breathed out nehind us, yesss...
    Both of us turned, watching as Chubs twisted around in his seat and settled back down, still fast asleep.
    I pressed a hand over my mouth to keep from laughing. Liam rolled his eyes, smiling.
    He dreams about food, he said. A lot.


  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #2

    ...what does the future look like?...'A deep blue, fading into golds and reds-like fire on a horizon. Afterlight. It's a sky that wants you to guess if the sun is about to rise or set.

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #3

    A mannequin? An unfeeling heartless bitch who feeds on others' misery and is physically incapable of crying, unless it's tears of blood?

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #4

    A moment later, Liam's bright blue eyes opened, and he was seeing me. He just wasn't seeing Ruby.

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #5

    Also, screw you—maybe you can be all stealthy and break into their building to get the woman out, but I can get
    us there and back safely. I did this for months and never got a second glance from anyone, including PSFs.”

    “Probably because your ugly-ass face blinded them on the first look,” she muttered.

    And for the love of God, bitch, don't get stabbed this time!

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #7

    And the open road rolled out in front of us.

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #8

    Are you driving this slow because you have no idea where we're going, or because you're hoping we jump out of the car & put ourselves out of our misery?

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #9

    Are you sure this isn't a nightmare? And that we won't just wake up?
    Yes.
    Because dreamers always wake up and leave their monsters behind.

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #10

    But hey, what's life without a little adversity?
    That had to have been the fakest attempt at optimism since my fourth grade teacher tried reasoning that we were better off without the dead kids in our class because it'd mean more turns on the playground swings for the rest of us.

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #11

    But part of surviving is being able to move on.

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #12

    Do you think the memory of someone should dictate how we live going forward?' he asks, threading and unthreading his fingers together.
    'It depends,' I say. 'I think you can probably honor someone's memory, but you can't live for them, because that means living in the past.

    He could silence me, but Rob had no power over my mind

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #14

    Hey Boo, I'm in this now, too, & I got a lot of experience playing assholes like they're fucking harps. You need backup, I got you. Stop trying to convince yourself that you're in this alone.

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #15

    Hours of being asked:Do you understand? But for all of her answers, she never got around the one question I had wanted to ask.
    What does it feel like?

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #16

    I bet it gets pretty lonely with only your ego for company.

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #17

    I can't--I can't think about anything or anyone else, he whispered. A hand drifted up, dragging back through his hair. I can't think straight when you're around. I can't sleep. It feels like I can't breathe--I just--
    Liam, please, I begged. You're tired. You're barely over being sick. Let's just... Can we just go back to the others?
    I love you. He turned toward me, that agonized expression still on his face. I love you every second of everyday, and I don't understand why, or how to make it stop--
    He looked wild with pain; it pinned me in place, even before what he had said registered in my mind.
    I know it's wrong; I know it down to my damn bones. And I feel like I'm sick. I'm trying to be a good person, but I can't. I can't do this anymore.

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #18

    I didn't have time for tears anymore. I had questions.

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #19

    I do not know what, in the end, makes a person who they are. If we`re all born one way, or if we only arrive there after as series of chioces. The bible claims that the wicked act on their own desires and impulses, because God is good, only good, and He would never compel a soul to wickedness. That I`m supposed to count on justice in the next life, even if I can`t have it in this one.

    I don't know about the rest of you, but I'd be up for hearing about the one-eyed chick

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #21

    I don't know about the rest of you, but I'd be up for hearing about the one-eyed chick, Vida said with a shrug.
    You are atually the worst person I have ever met, Chubs said.
    And people like you are the reason we have middle fingers.

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #22

    I don't know about the rest of you, but I'd be up for hearing about the one-eyed chick.

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #23

    I felt the familiar warm tingling at the center of my chest and had just enough time to gasp as some invisible hand yanked me forward, smacking my forehead against the dashboard with enough force to stun me dumb.
    Chubs slammed on the brakes, forcing my seat belt to do its job and lock against my chest. I was thrown back into my seat, an explosion of colors bursting in my vision.
    Oh, hell no! Chubs roared, slamming a hand against the steering wheel. That's it! We don not use our abilities on one another, goddammit! Behave yourself!

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #24

    I had the strangest feeling -- like I had lost something without ever really having it in the first place -- that I wasn't what I once was, and wasn't at all what I was meant to be. The sensation made me feel hollow down to my bones.

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #25

    I had the strangest feeling-like I had lost something without ever really having it in the first place-that i wasn't what I once was, and wasn't at all what I was meant to be.

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #26

    I hugged him without any kind of fear or self-consciousness, fiercely, with a rush of emotion that almost brought tears to my eyes.
    I could kiss you! Chubs cried.
    Please don't! I gasp out, feeling his arms tighten around my ribs to the point of cracking them.

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #27

    I knew I wasn't making sence, but I couldn't seem to connect my thoughts to my tongue. That feeling... How did you tell someone that?

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #28

    I know I'm going to shred the skin off your face and turn it into hair ribbons.

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #29

    I pulled myself from his mind, day by day, piece by piece, memory by memory, until there was nothing of Ruby left to weigh him down or keep him bound to my side..

  • Alexandra Bracken Quote #30

    I was coming to see the heavier your heart got, the strongest you had to be to keep carrying it around.
