“It was him or you,” he said softly. “You had to choose.”

Her gaze fell to the wet grass beneath her, the wrapped bandage. She thought of her past. Her whole life.

FAVORITE BOOKS ✿ The Winner’s Curse by Marie Rutkoski

“Looks like someone’s suffering the Winner’s Curse.” Kestrel turned to her. “What do you mean?” “You don’t come to auctions often, do you? The Winner’s Curse is when you come out on top of the bid, but only by paying a steep price.” “I don’t understand,” said Jess. Neither did Kestrel. What had she been thinking? What had she been trying to prove? Nothing, she told herself. Nothing at all.

FAVORITE BOOKS ✿ The Winner’s Kiss by Marie Rutkoski

“On the battlefield, you stayed—” “Of course I did.” “You have a strong sense of honor. You always have. I think you think you owe me something.” “I stayed because I love you.” He flinched and looked away. “You don’t mean that.” “Yes, I do.”

She said that she still loved him, because it was true. He owed her better answers than the ones he had given, and even if he never had them, it was her right to keep asking. She would never give him her dagger. “I tried so hard to live in your world,” she told him. “Now it’s your turn to live in mine.”

FAVORITE BOOKS ✿ The Winner’s Crime by Marie Rutkoski

Her father held his honor so firmly, like a solid thing, something that couldn’t twist free. It occurred to Kestrel that she had wondered before what her father’s honor was like, and Arin’s, but she didn’t know the shape of her own. There was dishonor, she decided, in accepting someone else’s idea of honor without question.

Kestrel felt a flicker of instinctive curiosity. Then she reminded herself bitterly that this was what curiosity had bought her: fifty keystones for a singer who refused to sing, a friend who wasn't her friend, someone who was hers and yet would never be hers. Kestrel looked away from Arin. She swore to herself that she would never look back.
