"well, it's true that i have been hurt in my life. quite a bit. but it's also true that i have loved, and been loved. and that carries a weight of its own. a greater weight, in my opinion. it's like that pie chart we talked about earlier. in the end, i'll look back on my life and see that the greatest piece of it was love.”

Books (re)read in 2024: This Lullaby by Sarah Dessen

“I am coming to terms with the fact that loving someone requires a leap of faith, and that a soft landing is never guaranteed.”

It's the nostalgia talking, but real question to all my ladies who were reading Sarah Dessen in the 2000s: which leading lady did you relate to most, and which boy was your favorite?

I related most to Auden and my favorite guy was Eli. I feel like that's not a particularly coincidental combination.

You know, when it works, love is pretty amazing. It's not overrated. There's a reason for all those songs.
