    Without the girls, I don’t know who I would be. They are a very big part of who I am. All my life, they have been laying a beautiful path for me, and I am so grateful for it.

    There are so many unhappy people, I just don’t want to find out that I am one of them. They walk among us, they touch you, and you become them. Introspection is like cyanide. Life is fine this way, ignorance is easy, I do what is easy. Doesn’t that make the most sense?

    it’s like im lucy rn

    It isn’t that I want him, it’s that he wants somebody else. Since when am I not enough for him?

    When, finally, I come to terms with the functions of her mouth, and I think it’s over, she thrusts something new and unexpected at me. First it is the reflection of sunlight on the sebum on her forehead, and then it’s a blue pedicure, and then a golden crust of pus on her bitten and infected cuticle.

    oh, to be paid attention to like this. so raw and so beautiful

    A lot of my clothes could be considered vintage. They have been given to me by older cousins, some even saved from Mother’s youth. Somehow my sort of vintage isn’t as cool as Susannah’s.

    this is so soooo relatable

    The book felt heavy, both literally and figuratively. It was a slow read for me because the writing style felt disjointed at times, and often wordier than it needed to be for what I thought was a simple picture to paint. But in the moments when it clicked, the dread I felt for the characters settled heavy in the pit of my stomach.

    I loved the parts written from the kids' point of view. Roy has a way of tickling my funny bone that feels endearing rather than cutesy. She captures the way children think perfectly.

    I cried during the last two chapters. They were genuinely heartbreaking. And not to be too on the nose about it, but Roy really does make the small feel big — the scene that left the biggest impression on me was the twins pestering Velutha while he fixed the twins’ boat.

    It was beautiful and tragic, and still timely in a world that has so little care for the people it deems beneath it.

    These days the girls let themselves crumble when the boys come around. I’m hoping that I’m just late developing, and in a month or two, I’ll start to crumble as well.

    girl you’re all good trust me
