Quotable

“I am always surprised to discover that when the world seems darkest, there exists the greatest opportunity for light.” -A Curse So Dark and Lonely, by Brigid Kemmerer.

This book made me realize how much I love re-tellings. I thought it was just Alice in Wonderland, but no. It’s all of them.

Quotable

…lying was a betrayal to one’s self. It’s evidence of self-loathing. When you are so ashamed of your actions, thoughts, or intentions, you lie rather than accepting yourself for who you really are—or, in this case, pretend something happened when it didn’t. The idea of how others see you becomes more important than the reality of you. -Theft of Swords, by Michael J. Sullivan
