Paper Towns
by John Green

I'm starting to realize that people lack good mirrors. It's so hard for anyone to show us how we look, & so hard for us to show anyone how we feel.

Lola and the Boy Next Door
by Stephanie Perkins

You should show encouragement whenever you can. People try harder when they know that someone cares about them.

This quote is important, I believe. Encouragement can make such a difference to a single person. It can entirely boost their self-esteem by a little or by a lot. Still, you're making a good difference.

Anna and the French Kiss
by Stephanie Perkins

I love you as certain dark things are loved, secretly, between the shadow and the soul.

In honour of the review that was *finally* put up yesterday, here is to Anna and the French Kiss! And its marvelous characters and snazzy setting!

Please Ignore Vera Dietz by A.S. King

The thing you don't see while you're still there on Earth is how easy it is to change your mind. When you're in it and you're mixed up with feelings, assumptions, influences, and misconceptions, things seem completely impossible to change. From here, you see that change is as easy as flicking a light switch in your brain.

A Walk to Remember by Nicholas Sparks

Believe it or not, that was the first time I recognized that in some ways she was just like the rest of us.

What a classic, this book! Reading quote just gives me the chills. Oh, sweet, true love.

Note:
I am soooooo sorry for disappearing from the blog all of a sudden. I haven't, however, disappeared from Twitter. It's where I talk about most things I'm doing so if you're following me on Twitter, you'd know that the past few weeks have been CRAZY in school. SO CRAZY (!) that I was going to tear my hair out. And I'm sorry for abandoning my dear blogger friends and readers! The following week will make up for it. I have no deadlines at all and I will definitely make some posts. Final exams are coming very soon though so look out for that. Oh how I enjoy studying. Oh so much.

But I am BACK!!! :D

Delirium by Lauren Oliver

It's amazing how words can do that, just shred your insides apart. Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me - such bullshit.

Like I said, I will always go back to this lovely book and share those quotes that really touched me, including and especially this one.

A Walk to Remember by Nicholas Sparks

Love is like the wind, you can't see it but you can feel it

The most famous line in this movie, which is one of my all time favourites.

The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks by E. Lockhart

It is better to be alone, she figures, than to be with someone who can't see who you are. It is better to lead than to follow. It is better to speak up than stay silent. It is better to open doors than to shut them on people.
