• “Napaka-stupid mo talaga.”

• “He’s too bossy, arrogant, mainitin ang ulo at laging sumisigaw. He always curses, always giving me threats—”
• “She’s loud, irritating, slow, stupid, maarte, mareklamo, sakit siya sa ulo.”
• “Sa sobrang dami ng naitulong mo, nakatulog ka nga eh.”
• “While everyone wants to have a charm as powerful as him, Jett thinks of his charm as a curse.”
• “Why is he pushing everyone away?” “Dahil mas natatakot siya na siya at ang kapangyarihan niya mismo ang maging dahilan ng pagkawala ng mga taong mahalaga sa kanya.”

• “Kill my charm, Ariela.”
• “Kapag kaya mo ng kalabanin ang mga taong malapit sa'yo, doon mo masasabing kaya mo ng kalabanin ang lahat.”
• “Kamatayan ang katumbas ng pagkawala ng charm para sa isang charmer.”
• “You can't control your emotions. Therefore, you can't control your charm.”
• “I thought we are a team here. Pero mukhang ako lang ang nag-iisip ng bagay na 'yun.”
• “His arms embracing me, gave me an instant sense of relief. Kung pwede lang huminto ang oras.”
• “Isang imahe ang pumasok sa isip ko bago ako tuluyang nakatulog. Isang imahe na maaring hindi ko na muling makikita. Ang nakangiting mukha ni Jett.”
• “Nagawa niya pang kindatan ang mga babaeng nadaanan namin habang sinusundan ako.”
• “Si Jett Forester, ang fire element? Sila ang mga freshmen na sakit sa ulo ng mga guro.”
• “He is doing it again. Bumabalik na naman siya sa dati. Ang dating Jett na nakilala nila noon. Ang dating Jett na hindi malapitan. Ang Jett na kinakatakutan ng lahat ng estudyante ng Charm Academy.”
• “Ikaw ang gusto kong makasama.”
• “Dito ka na lang kasi para araw-araw kitang nakikita.”
• “Smile, Ariela. Make yourself believe that everything will be fine.”
• “He took my hand and gently let his fingers intertwine with mine. Then he placed his other arm on the back of my waist as if embracing me.”
• “It was not a mean smile but a soft smile. A smile that confirms he did miss me.”
• “Davis, I miss you. I fucking miss you.”
• “I closed my eyes and I can feel him kissing my forehead. This is true. This is so damn true.”
• “Kahit isang minuto pa, dito ka muna.”
• “His eyes landed on my lips. I could feel the world froze beneath my feet the moment he close the gap between our faces.”
• “Ariela,” he breathed through my still parted lips, “you can't leave me like this again.”
• “I'm deeply in love with Jett Forester.”
• “Jett, huwag kang mag-alala. Kaibigan ko lang siya.” “Gano'n din ba ang tingin niya sa'yo?”
• “Pino-protektahan ko lang kung ano ang sa'kin.”
• “The next I knew, I was standing beside Jett, his one hand gripping my waist tightly.”
• “Mas pinili ka niya kesa sa kaligtasan ng kanyang ama.”
• “Labing tatlong taon ng pagkakaibigan, tuluyan nang natuldukan.”
• “Minsan sa pag-protekta ng isang bagay, kailangan nating isakripisyo ang sarili nating kaligtasan.”
• “Charms if used in high volumes, especially dangerous types, can harm the body of the user.”
• “You have to meet people where they are, and sometimes you have to leave them there.”
• “Ang sakit na makita na umiiyak ang kaibigan mo. Ang sakit na hindi mo siya kayang lapitan at sabihin na magiging okay din ang lahat. Ang sakit dahil kailangan kong mamili.”
• “Hindi ko kayang mawala si Jett. Hindi ko kaya.”
• “For the first time, I found a place where I truly belong. But now I have to leave.”

• “Hindi siya pwedeng umalis ng gano'n na lang. Ginawa ko ang lahat para manatili siya rito.”

Novel #17
Words On Bathroom Walls
By Julia Walton (⭐⭐⭐)
Favorite lines from the novel:
• “When you love somebody, you try to be better.”
• “Most people are afraid of themselves, Adam. They carry that fear everywhere hoping no one will notice.”
• “Real is subjective. There are a lot of things that aren't actually real to everyone. Pain, for example. It's only real to the one experiencing it. Everyone else has to take your word for it.”
• “Sometimes the things that happen aren't as important as the things you remember.”
• “I like libraries, if for no other reason than they give homeless people a place to hang out. There's something nice about the way you're never too old to go into one, but it still makes you feel the way it did when you were small.”
• “The important thing about being crazy is knowing that you're crazy. The knowing part makes you less crazy.”
• “I get it now. It's hard to let someone find you in all the dark and twisty places inside, but eventually, you have to hope that they do, because that's the beginning of everything.”
• “Everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle, right? But what if they're not? What if the biggest thing they have to worry about is homework and whether they get into a good college? Even if they've lost a family member or their parents are getting a divorce or they're missing someone far away. That is not worse than having to take medication to be in control of your own mind. It's just not.”
• “I like how people only tell you not to worry about stuff when it's something they don't care about.”
• “Respect your elders. When shouldn't it be… respect everyone?”
• “You lose your secrets when you let people get too close.”
• “Being me is actually pretty lonely.”
• “Glorious sleep. I’d forgotten how good it feels to just let yourself die for ten hours. The only shitty part is waking up.”
• “Being old does not make you a good person. Old age is not, in itself an admirable quality. Sometimes it just means you haven't had the sense to let anything kill you.”
• “Church is for people who believe in things they can't see. Life for me is about seeing things I probably shouldn't believe in.”
• “It was probably immature and incredibly stupid, but some of the best moments are.”
• “You lose your secrets when you let people get too close… I get it now. It’s hard to let someone find you in all the dark and twisty places inside, but eventually, you have to hope that they do, because that’s the beginning of everything.”
• “I don’t think I’ll ever forget that feeling, when I learned what someone would say if they knew my secret. What they really thought about people with my condition. Not the fake comforting words they’d give that other people would hear. The real words in their heart. If they knew I was a threat, they’d tell me to kill myself. They’d think I was a monster.”
• “Cookies don’t require any thought if all you’re doing is eating them, but they require a certain degree of thoughtfulness if you make them for someone.”
• “I don’t always say the things I mean to say when I talk to someone. It’s impossible to swallow words after letting them out, so it’s better for me not to speak at all if I can help it.”
• “I actually have a diagnosed mental condition that bothers me less than the fact that I have empathetic nipples.”
• “Most people are afraid of themselves. They carry that fear everywhere hoping no one will notice.”

• “What was the point of even having a conversation when words couldn't be trusted?”
• “Next time I'll pat you on the freaking back for stating the obvious.”
• “You're either the bravest kid I've ever met or plain crazy.”
• “Ever since Thomas had entered the Maze, Newt had been there for him. Thomas hadn’t realized just how much of a friend he’d become until now. His heart hurt.”
• “We'll start firing till they drop or we drop.”
• “As we tried to instill in each of our subjects over and over, WICKED is good.”
• “Kill me, you shuck coward. Prove you can do the right thing. Put me out of my misery.”
• “And we want to make sure that something is done to salvage what’s left of this beautiful race called humans.”
• “If any of your body parts become detached due to an unfortunate encounter with a crank, I highly advise you leave said body part behind and run like hell. Unless it's a leg, of course.”
• “You never know when to shut your hole, have ya, Minho? Always gotta have the bloody last word.”
• “We were unable to discover either a vaccine or a treatment for the Flare.”
• “He’d killed Newt. He’d shot his own friend in the head.”

• “Sure, we love reproducing it's one of our favorite things.”
• “Going round and around inside a dryer can be fatal, whereas pasta is rarely fatal. Unless Isabelle makes it.”

• “Only when his mouth came close to her ear did she understand what he was saying, and it was the simplest litany of all: her name, just her name.”
• “I knew Greater Demons were meant to be ugly, but no one ever warned me about the smell.”
• “Jace can draw?” “I was just kidding. He can't draw a straight line.”

Novel #14
All The Bright Places
By Jennifer Niven (⭐⭐⭐⭐)
Favorite lines from the novel:
• “Sometimes I say and do things without thinking, and people don't like that, people like labels. They like putting you in a box. They want you to be who they want you to be.”
• “People are stupid, but the tiniest few might actually mean well.”
• “He taught me that it was okay to get lost, as long as you find your way back.”
• “The thing I realize is, that it's not what you take, it's what you leave.”
• “You are all the colors in one, at full brightness.”
• “We do not remember days, we remember moments.”
• “The great thing about this life of ours is that you can be someone different to everybody.”
• “The problem with people is they forget that most of the time it's the small things that count.”
• “It's my experience that people are a lot more sympathetic if they can see you hurting.”
• “'Lovely' is a lovely word that should be used more often.”
• “You make me lovely, and it’s so lovely to be lovely to the one I love.…”
• “You have been in every way all that anyone could be.… If anybody could have saved me it would have been you.”
• “Sometimes there’s beauty in the tough words—it’s all in how you read them.”
• “I do my best thinking at night when everyone else is sleeping. No interruptions. No noise. I like the feeling of being awake when no one else is.”
• “We are all alone, trapped in these bodies and our own minds, and whatever company we have in this life is only fleeting and superficial.”
• “I learned that there is good in this world, if you look hard enough for it. I learned that not everyone is disappointing, including me, and that a 1,257-foot bump in the ground can feel higher than a bell tower if you’re standing next to the right person.”
• “I know life well enough to know you can’t count on things staying around or standing still, no matter how much you want them to. You can’t stop people from dying. You can’t stop them from going away. You can’t stop yourself from going away either.”
• “I know myself well enough to know that no one else can keep you awake or keep you from sleeping.”
• “What would I have said to him if I'd known I would never see him again?”
• “She is oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus. The same elements that are inside the rest of us, but I can’t help thinking she’s more than that and she’s got other elements going on that no one’s ever heard of, ones that make her stand apart from everybody else.”
• “People rarely bring flowers to a suicide.”
• “I am on the highest branch.
We are written in paint.
I believe in signs.
The glow of Ultraviolet.
A lake. A prayer. It's so lovely to be lovely in Private."
• “Stars in the sky, stars on the ground. It’s hard to tell where the sky ends and the earth begins. I feel the need to say something grand and poetic, but the only thing I come up with is “It’s lovely.”
• “Sorry wastes time. You have to live your life like you'll never be sorry. It's easier just to do the right thing from the start so there's nothing to apologize for.”
• “Because it's not a lie if it's how you feel.”
• “No more winter at all. Finch, you brought me spring.”
• “There are bright places even in dark times, and if there isn't… you can be that bright place.”
• “You got at least a thousand capacities in you even if you don't think so.”
• “Maybe even the smallest places can mean something.”
• “You saved my life. Why couldn't I save yours?”
• “You know what I like about you, Ultraviolet Remarkey-able? Everything.”
• “And in that moment there’s nothing I fear except losing hold of her hand.”
• “What a terrible feeling to love someone and not be able to help them.”

Novel #4
By Your Side
By Kasie West (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐)
Favorite lines from the novel:
“Are you scared of anything? What's the first thought that comes to your mind when I say worst fear?” “Commitment.”
“Maybe that bracelet didn't mean anything, after all. Dax didn't need my friendship.”
“You didn't want to see me.” “You like to assume.”
“I don't mind being your distraction, but I won't always be here.”
“He is a distraction.” “Television is a distraction. Dax is a hostile takeover.”
“Happy memories can't get you through everything.”
“We made a rule,” I whispered. “Unlike you, I don't follow rules.” He didn't give me a chance to respond. His lips met mine and stole my willpower.
“You said just a distraction. No attachments. This is way beyond attachment if you feel the need to try to fix my life.”
“You're still wearing your bracelet.” “It reminds me of a relationship that I don't want to lose.”
“I became attached to someone I'd said I wouldn't to.”
“The bracelet, which he'd always worn on his right hand, was now on his left, crossing the tattoo.”
“Possibilities don't hurt as much as realities. Possibilities are exciting and endless. Realities are final. There would be no more 'what if's', no more 'might be's', no more dreaming.”
“Even though I knew this might end in heartbreak, that he might make my life scary and complicated and unpredictable, I knew I couldn't let him walk away. Because I knew he'd also make my life happy and comforting and full.”
“There was something very satisfying about a smile that had to be earned.”

Novel #3
The Love Hypothesis
By Ali Hazelwood (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐)
Favorite lines from the novel:
“I wish you could see yourself the way I see you.”
“I want to keep you in this hotel room for a week.”
“Hypothesis: A heart will break even more easily than the weakest hydrogen bonds.”
“One-sided relationships are really…not good.”
“I'm starting to wonder if this is really what being in love is. Being okay with ripping yourself to shreds, so the other person can stay whole.”
“The truth is, we did great. And it's time we call it quits.”
“It was frightening. Frightening how good this felt. How easy it would be to never stop. To let time stretch and unbend, forget about everything else, and simply stay in this moment forever.”
“Something inside her--her heart, very possibly--was broken in several large pieces, not shattered as much as neatly snapped in half, and then in half again.”
“He who laughs at himself never runs out of things to laugh at.”
“That's the thing about Science. We're drilled to believe that false positives are bad, but false negatives are just as terrifying. Not being able to see something even if it's in front of your eyes. Purposely making yourself blind, just because you are afraid of seeing too much.”
“You can fall in love: someone will catch you.”
“Expiration dates are for the weak.”
“This might be inappropriate but…Olive. You really…you are extraordinary.”
“It never occured to Olive that Dr. Adam Carlsen--known ass--had called her by her name.”
“I know it's scary, being vulnerable but you can allow yourself to care. You can want to be with people as more than just friends or casual acquiantances.”
“Ik hou van jou, Adam.”

Novel #2
The Unhoneymooners
By Christina Lauren (⭐⭐⭐)
Favorite lines from the novel:
“I knew he was a book lover, but to be the same kind of book lover I am? It makes my insides melt.”
“love is exhausting.”
“It's so exhausting pretending to hate you.”
“Think out loud with me.”
“Ethan Thomas is doing something weird to my emotions.”
“You don't get to choose the circumstances. That's the point of luck: it happens when and where it happens.”
“Honesty has always seemed to work best for us:”
“When someone doesn't like us, it's natural to not like them in return, right?”
“Things are easy, and fun, and effortless. This isn’t how new relationships are supposed to be: they’re supposed to be stressful, and exhausting, and uncertain”
“I like to think I can be affectionate, but some things are infinitely better when they happen behind closed doors.”
“Got your lucky penny? Don’t need it anymore. I’ve got her.”
“Nothing is harder in a relationship than not respecting the person you're with." He leans his chin heavily into his hand. "I didn't like myself with her. I was willing to try to be the guy she wanted rather than who I really am.”
“I think I would have been delusional to think I could ever get this lucky.”
“You’re looking at me like you like me,” he says.
“I am a homebody, through and through,”
“I can hear you thinking about that one word and reading more into it than I intended. You look great. You always do.”
“I wouldn't go on a fake honeymoon with you if I had a girlfriend.”
“And I get it. As much as I hate him...I think I am starting to like us.”
