When we are collecting books, we are collecting happiness.

I swear, I am going to reblog this the entire time I see it.

Understanding a line of foreshadowing so well that you have to stand up and walk around the house saying “shit shit shit shit shit” until your composed enough to go back.

When we read a story, we inhabit it. The covers of the book are like a roof and four walls. What is to happen next will take place within the four walls of the story. And this is possible because the story’s voice makes everything its own.

When I was about eight, I decided that the most wonderful thing, next to a human being, was a book.

Do you ever wonder about how an author would describe you in a novel? Not only your appearance but the way you talk and laugh and hold yourself and all the expressions on your face?

“And then there’s this asshole”

[bookriot]

We are the readers. We are the ones who want to know more. We are the ones who observe the fictional and the real. We are the ones who create the story, even when there isn’t one there to begin with. We are the ones you write for. We are the ones who make things more interesting because we can find the story in every conversation, in every interaction. We are the ones who will never stop learning, dreaming, hoping, finding. We are the ones will never stop trying to figure it out, and will always be aware that we never will… it’s what keeps us searching, looking, wanting.

fun fact: daniel specifically asked to be placed near this one extra he had a crush on during this scene. alan and michael did this on purpose not just to prank daniel, but to make him embarrassed infront of her

[kenziecore]

What really gets me is that the star of the entire franchise had a crush on an extra and if you don’t think that is the fucking cutest thing ever, you, good sir, are wrong.

literature meme: prose writers [1/6]

"The world may be broken but hope is not crazy."

John Green is an American writer of young adult fiction and a YouTube vlogger and educator. He won the 2006 Printz Award for his debut novel, Looking for Alaska, and reached number one on a New York Times Best Seller list with The Fault in Our Stars in January 2012.

*He’s also a personal hero and rolemodel and his words are brilliant, both the published ones and the ones he just… says. And I just needed to put this here.
