If you knew what was going to happen, if you knew everything that was going to happen next — if you knew in advance the consequences of your own actions — you'd be doomed. You'd be as ruined as God. You'd be a stone. You'd never eat or drink or laugh or get out of bed in the morning. You'd never love anyone, ever again. You'd never dare to.

“You're your own speeding car. You think you can get rid of things, and people too, leave them behind. You don't yet know about the habit they have, of coming back.”

New TBR pile! I’ve made it my mission to hit as many bookstores in London as possible, which eventually turned into a book buying spree. No regrets! (Well maybe some regrets… I’m slowly but surely running out of space)

How they’d loved to cut themselves on each other, taste their own blood.
