I was outnumbered, unarmed, weak, and screwed. In that order. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I told Vivvie what the person who'd answered had said, verbatim. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
All's fair in love and war--and black ops. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
There's an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer that I've been thinking about a lot while writing this essay. In it, Buffy sacrifices her own life to save her sister, and right before she does, she tells her sister that the hardest thing to do in the world is to live - ironic words coming from someone about to kill herself for the greater good. As I'm writing this, I just keep thinking that Katniss never gets to sacrifice herself. She doesn't get the heroic death. She survives - and that leaves her doing the hardest thing in the world: living in it once so many of the ones she loves are gone. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
We're all liars sometimes. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
The werewolf Senate hadn't been happy with the idea of a human alpha, and there wasn't a day that went by that I didn't think about the fact that I had something most male Weres wanted very, very badly ... Maddy. Lake. Lily, Katie, Sloane, Avie, Sophie ... ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
It's your favorite person."
"No. You're not."
"I won't embarrass you by proving I am. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Someone tried to kill me, and I'm going swimming. I'm going swimming, because it doesn't matter. I'm going swimming, because I don't matter. I'm going swimming, because that's what Claires do. We swim and we daydream and we read and we wait for someone to care, and they never, ever, ever do. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Sometimes, there aren't any good choices. Sometimes, making the right one is hard ... It's funny, but when you think about it, we're all broken. That's what life does. It knocks you down and breaks you and you either get back up again, or you don't. You either do things on your terms, or you don't. You let the bad things win, or you don't."
"You either let it break you, or you don't. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Consider me an open book" dev said. "Mi casa es su casa." Dev crinkled his nose and smelled the air. "Err, mi nose es su nose. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Your statistical track record for decision-making is somewhat concerning. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jack Peyton is HOT!" someone from the audience yelled.
"Toby Klein is HOTTER" a male voice argued, and I almost went into an epileptic fit of disgust at both the words and the tone.
"Now, now," Jack said, raising his hands. "Don't be ridiculous. Mr. Corkin is clearly the hottest ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I had no weapons. No plan. Nothing but my blood and my hands. They were coming, and there were more of them than I'd realized. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
These days, it seems like you can't throw a fish in a bookstore without hitting a high-stakes love triangle
not that I recommend the throwing of fish in bookstores, mind you, as it certainly annoys the booksellers, not to mention the fish ... ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
You want power-either because you've already had a taste of it and want more, or because you've been made to feel powerless for too long. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Luckily for us, I've never met a bad idea I did not immediately embrace like the dearest of friends. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes

For the first time in weeks, Ali laughed. Go on. And if you're very good, Ali show Bryn big heaping secret. fiiiiiirrrre. Make tasty warm dinosaur meat. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I guess I always thought," Ivy said softly, "that if I was strong enough, if I was formidable enough, if I was successful enough - I could be enough. For you. I thought that if I became this person who could take on the world, then I could take care of you." She shook her head - at her past self, maybe, or to snap herself out of it. "When I came to Montana that summer, Tess, I thought I was ready. I really did. I was going to give you everything. But Gramps called me out, and he was right, Tessie. I wasn't doing it for you. You were thriving. You were happy. And I . . ." The words got caught in her throat, but she forced them out. "I was your sister. I was never going to be strong enough or successful enough. There was never going to be a right time to tell you. You were happy. And you deserved to be happy. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I won't say I told you so. But let's just take a moment of silence to think about the fact that I was right. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Before, I liked cars, yachts, a door locked from the inside, and you. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
She wasn't going to sit and wait. She was done waiting, because you could spend your whole life waiting for something to happen. Something big. You could wait and wait, and even if something big happened, even if it finally happened - it didn't change anything. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I have a plan. Boys, it's hunting season. Weapon up ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
This is Sadie," he told his father, tucking a hand around Lia's waist as he introduced her by her alias of choice. "And by the door, we have Esmerelda, Erma, and Barf."
For the first time, I saw a flicker of annoyance cross Townsend Senior's face. "Barf?" He eyed Dean.
"It's short for Bartholomew," Lia lied smoothly. "Our Barf had a speech impediment as a child. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I sense that the chocolate chips have hit the fan. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Asher smiled beatifically, as if he'd been waiting his whole life for someone to ask just that question. How would you feel about some Mentos and Diet Coke? ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I'd sold my soul to get out of detention. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I am everything. I am nothing. I am powerful. I am forgotten. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Go on," Ali told me. "Get dressed. Make your bed. And for heaven's sakes, Bryn, brush your hair. You're starting to look like a cavegirl."
"Bryn want kill dinosaur," I said, pantomiming what I thought passed for a decent dinosaur-killing motion.
For the first time in weeks, Ali laughed. "Go on. And if you're very good, Ali show Bryn big heaping secret. Fiiiiiirrrre. Make tasty warm dinosaur meat."
I snorted. "Dork."
"Right back at ya, kiddo. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Sometimes make-believe is just another word for rare. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
You don't have to dance. Just brood in beat to the music. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Too young to party, just odd enough to participate in federal investigations of serial murder. Story of my life. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Nobody liked my plan.
"You want us to split up?" Chase asked, his brow wrinkling in obvious bewilderment.
Lake echoed the sentiment, her voice flat. "Why would we split up? There's four of us and one of him." After a brief moment's pause, she amended her head count to better reflect the real odds. "Three and a half of us, one of him."
Three and a half, as in three werewolves, one human. I narrowed my eyes. "For your sake, Lake, I'm going to pretend that Devon is the half."
Dev, unquestionably the strongest person in the room, just shrugged and let me keep my delusions. "It's because of my petite stature," he said. All 6'4" of him. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Oh God, Tessie... That is my daughter... And the next person who tries to get between my and my daughter is going to rue their existence on this earth... Every secret you've been keeping will find its way out. Every decision you make will be questioned. You will be audited, investigated, and transferred to the most hellish nightmare of a desk job I can find. Now, get out of my way. - Ivy ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Believe me," he said simply. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I could see, already, how this was going to end. "You'll have checkmate in three moves... Luckily for me," I told him, my fingers closing around my own queen, "I'll have checkmate in two. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
And b-t-w, if anyone asks you what's in the box, I'd say 'feminine supplies.'"
The box was large and heavy, and there was a distinct clanging sound as I carried it. "As in tampons?"
"Keely's not going to ask questions. Ali's busy with the twins, and everyone else around here is male. Tampons scare the bejeezus out of them, my dad included, but if the person who asks is a Were, they'd smell a lie. Hence, feminine supplies."
"Because we're females, and they're our supplies?" I guessed.
"No. Because weapons are feminine." Lake gave me an insulted look. "Why do you think I named my gun Matilda? ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
For all you know, this moment, this second, or the next, or the next, could be your destiny. It's not about having plans. It's about having purpose and being who, not what you want to be. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Life is full of drowning people, ready and willing to drown you, too. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
My little sister snuck out of the house carrying a circular-saw blade and a can of Mace. I couldn't exactly let her come alone. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
It seems like everyone I know has very strong feelings about which boy is the best fit for Katniss, but also because the books themselves contain a commentary on the way audiences latch onto romance, even (and maybe especially) when lives are at
stake. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
The problem was that there was no treatment. No cure. There was nothing that ... any medical professional could do. If I'd been fully human, I would have been a dead girl walking ... ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
You have no right to tell me-"
"You do not want to finish that sentence, missy. You want to sit down, close your mouth, and eat."
"How am I supposed to eat with my mouth closed? ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Oh God. I'm jealous of farts. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Tallyho, friends of Asher!" Asher had impeccable timing. He waltzed into the room and hopped up on the computer table, his legs dangling down, like he didn't have a care in the world. Like the tension in the room wasn't thick enough that you could have cut it with a knife. "Am I interrupting something?" he asked blithely. Just Henry telling me he thinks my sister might be working to cover up his grandfather's murder. Henry must have read something in my expression, because a hint of remorse flashed across his features. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Home isn't a place. It's not having a bed to come home to, or a yard, or a Christmas tree at the holidays. Home is the people who love you. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Straw met camel's back. Breaking commenced. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Firecracker Gale and dandelion Peeta are so different from each other that it's easy to imagine that a girl who would choose Gale is a completely different person than one who would choose Peeta. When people sit around debating who Katniss should choose, maybe what they're really debating actually is her identity - and the romance is just a proxy for that big, hard question about the ever-changing, unaware girl on fire. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
They told him he was killing monsters, and then they made him kill people. He thought it was just me who was different, and he didn't go through with killing me. He thought there was a chance that it wasn't too late. That everyone he'd killed really had been a dangerous Null. That he really was a hero, working in the shadows to make the world a better place for people who'd never even looked his way. That he wasn't just an unimportant little boy raised like an animal and let out of the cage only when The Society wanted someone dead.
He wanted to believe that, and he just found out he was wrong. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Nothing. You know what that feels like. Reach for it. Grab it. Make it yours. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
...is not your hero. He's your god. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
What are we doing?" Asher helped himself to a seat at my table.
"We aren't doing anything," I told him bluntly.
"My mistake. I thought we were brooding in Henry's general direction. Like so." He adopted stormy countenance, then gestured to me. "Yours is better."
"Go away, Asher."
"You say go away, I hear be my bosom buddy." He gave an elaborate shrug. "Seriously, though: friendship bracelets - yea or nay? ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I had my knife in hand before I realized I'd reached for it and had kicked open the ... front door before it ever occurred to me that it might have already been unlocked. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I'm Chase." he said.
"Kind of an ironic name for a werewolf." The observation slipped easily off my tongue. The boy didn't blink. In fact, I was beginning to doubt that he'd blink once since I'd come into the room. "Werewolves do a lot of chasing." I explained.
"And your name is Chase. Hee. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Adam's blue eyes flicked briefly over to mine as he directed me to turn onto a major street. Once he was satisfied that I could, in fact, turn without causing my car - or any car in the near vicinity - to explode, he allowed himself to actually converse. "You don't trust people?" "Not to hit my car, or not to screw up my life?" "Either." That seemed like more of an answer than a question, so I didn't reply. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Bethany blinked. "Did you just hit me?" she asked, disbelief coloring her every feature.
Skylar raised both hands, palms outward. "I come in peace!"
"You do not come in peace. You hit me."
"I hit in peace! ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Walking in heels while wearing a ball gown was, as it turned out, more difficult than finagling an invitation to a state dinner. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I mean, technically, he wasn't fired," Emilia clarified. "He was reassigned. But precision of language has never been the gossip mill's forte, and I guess anything's a pretty big step down after the White House. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Without even thinking about it, I sent Callum an image of a dog hiking his leg at a fire hydrant. And then one of a rebel flag from the Revolutionary War.
Callum didn't respond in my head, but I knew he'd gotten the message, because he met me at the front door, and the first thing he said, with a single arch of his eyebrow, was, "Don't tread on you?"
"More like 'don't metaphorically pee on my brainwaves,' but it's the same sentiment, really."
"Vulgarity does not become you, Bryn."
"Are you going to lecture, or are we going to run?"
He sighed, but I didn't need a bond with the pack to see that he was thinking that I had always, always been a difficult child. And then, just in case that point wasn't clear, he verbalized it. "You have always, always been a difficult child."
I smiled sweetly. "I try. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
For a few seconds, I thought I might actually cry. That was so unlike me, I wasn't sure how to respond. Bronwyn Alessia St. Vincent Clare didn't get sad. She got mad. Or better, she got even. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Pretending something doesn't matter doesn't make it matter less. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Nothing hurts you unless you let it. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Caroline: 'You know Sora. I don't. It will hurt you. It won't hurt me. Nothing hurts me.'
Lake: 'Liar. Just breathing hurts you so bad, you want to beat the snot out of something. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
The fact that you don't hate him for this breaks my heart. And if we weren't leaving because of what they'd done to you, we'd be leaving because the pack has twisted you enough to make you think that it's okay for someone to treat you that way. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
My client," the lawyer said forcefully, "is pleading the Fifth. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Oh, I see how it is. Baby finds her Johnny Castle, and all of a sudden, she forgets about the small matter of her BFF?"
There was only one person in the world who could deliver that line with a straight face. Until I'd heard his voice, I hadn't realized just how much I'd missed it.
"Devon!"
Chase stiffened as Dev's name left my lips, and Devon beamed at me, doing a good impression of someone who hadn't been bristling a moment before, when I'd buried myself in Chase's arms.
"In the flesh," Devon said. "When you call, Bronwyn, I answer. Always." It was a testament to the gravity of the moment that he didn't treat everyone present to an impromptu performance of "Ain't No Mountain." Lest Devon decide the situation did call for some tunes, I pushed on. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Did you follow me here?" I asked.
Lake shrugged. "The word follow seems to suggest you got here first. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I wasn't entirely sure how to reply. Blow me and Screw you both seemed like strong contenders, but the peanut gallery in my head appeared to be favoring castration. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
This is why you don't call the police. Or Preternatural Control. No matter what. Ever. If I'd doubted that rule
and I was fairly sure I never had
I certainly never would have again. My skin itched just talking to the authorities ... The police department had more than a few open cases with my name on them
figuratively, and I had no desire to make that literal [where they connected me to] the vigilante responsible for dozens of area beastie slayings ... ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Girlfriend number seventeen," Asher replied. "Before Sophie and after Sarah."
"You'd had seventeen girlfriends by the time you were fourteen?" I asked.
"The ladies, he replied with a shrug. They love me. It's because I'm so charming."
"You're balancing on one leg on the roof of a chapel. You're not charming. You're an idiot. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
None of us had normal childhoods," Sloane said quietly. "If we had, we wouldn't be Naturals. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
You look like someone who's about to do something highly inadvisable. And God knows, if there's something inadvisable going on, I want in. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Mackie kneaded his forehead. "Are you sure none of you want to call your parents?"
"No, thank you."
"Do you know who my father is?'
"My stepmother's faking a pregnancy, and she needs her rest."
Mackie wasn't touching that with a ten-foot pole. He turned to the last girl, the one who'd successfully picked the lock mere seconds after he'd arrived.
"What about you?" he said hopefully.
"My biological father literally threatened to kill me if I become inconvenient," the girl said, leaning back against the wall of the jail cell like she wasn't wearing a designer gown. "And if anyone finds out we were arrested, I'm out five hundred thousand dollars. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I'd take a physical fight over Touchy-Feely Share Time, hands down ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Home is the people who love you. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Second thoughts? About the Squad?"
She nodded.
"I'm starting to think the CIA is seriously deranged for letting us do this," I told her, "but that doesn't mean I don't want to do it." I paused. "Actually, the fact that we probably shouldn't be doing this kind of makes me want to do it more."
Zee snorted. "Adrenaline junkie," she accused. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I wondered and I prayed and I Googled. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I lie to her. Because this world is not safe. The people who are supposed to protect us, the people we are supposed to trust -- I know that sometimes they are the ones who do the most harm. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Darryl likes codes," Skylar explained. "A few weeks ago, I asked him what someone might hypothetically need to break into a supercomputer. He hypothetically made me this. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
When you were a kid," he continued, his voice even and low, "Your mother taught you to observe people. She also taught you not to get attached. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Little-known fact about cheerleaders: They keep schedules that would make grown marines cry. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Sometimes, having friends who were like family was a good thing, and sometimes, it was like having an endless supply of very nosy, very irritating siblings. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Emilia hooked her arm through mine, like we were the best of friends. "You solve problems," she said again. "I have a problem. Ergo . . . ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
My dad was a different person when he lectured: his eyes sparkled, his lips turned upward ... 'Think what it must have been like for Darwin, two hundred years ago. He took that voyage on the Beagle [1831] expecting to document the natural world and he stumbled across something impossible. A creature who could defy the laws of physics
straight out of the pages of mythology ... In that one moment, the entire landscape of scientific investigation was drastically and irrevocably changed. The impossible became a widespread scientific reality, as omnipresent as gravity and in some cases, nearly as hard to see. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Sterling turned to Michael. I expected her to ask him something, but instead she just held out her hand. "Keys."
"Spatula," Michael replied. She narrowed her eyes at him. "We aren't just saying random nouns?" he asked archly. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
There was nothing left. Nothing of him, and nothing of me. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
We were getting ready to cross into another pack's territory, and my second-in-command was making spirit fingers. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
So," I said climbing to my feet and changing the subject ASAP, "I had a dream last night someone tried to burn me alive, and I'm not entirely sure it was a dream."
Devon stiffened. Chase's pupils pulsed.
Subject successfully changed.
"Now who's ready to eat? ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Show of hands," Devon said, breaking the silence. "Who thinks we're screwed? ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
As far as I could tell, my history teacher had three passions in life: quoting Shakespeare, identifying historical inaccuracies in cable TV shows, and berating Ryan Washburn. "Eighteen sixty-three, Mr. Washburn. Is that so hard to remember? Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation in eighteen sixty-three." Ryan was a big guy: a little on the quiet side, a little shy. I had no idea what it was about him that had convinced Mr. Simpson he needed to be taken down a notch - or seven. But more and more, this was how history class went: Simpson called on Ryan, repeatedly, until he made a mistake. And then it began. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Lake, could you please stop sweet-talking the weapons? It's kind of freaking me out. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Where is that incredible promise I hear my colleagues chatting about in the teachers' lounge?" Mr. Simpson asked Ryan facetiously. "You have a lot of fans at this school, Mr. Washburn. Surely they can't all be mistaken about your intellectual capacity. Perhaps the emancipation of every enslaved human being in this country is simply not significant enough to merit a student of your remarkable caliber taking note of the date? ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
In the interest of ultimate honesty," Celine cut in, "I'm pretty sure that everyone present would appreciate it if you two got a room."
"I wouldn't," Dean grumbled.
"I am unbothered by displays of physical and emotional intimacy," Sloane volunteered. "The nuances and statistics underlying courtship behavior are quite fascinating."
The edges of Celine's lips quirked upward as she met Sloane's gaze. "You don't say."
Sloane frowned. "I just did. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I don't need your permission to search your locker. The headmaster's tone drew my attention back in his direction. This, I inferred from the rise in volume, was supposed to be the voice of authority. If you didn't need my permission, I thought, then why did you ask for it? ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
And then, one Saturday morning, I came down to breakfast, and it all came to a head when she flat-out told me that I wasn't going to training.
Straw met camel's back. Breaking commenced.
"You have no right to tell me - "
"You do not want to finish that sentence, missy. You want to sit down, close your mouth, and eat."
"How am I supposed to eat with my mouth closed?"
"Bryn, that's enough. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I had to protect him. And me. So I took everything I felt for the pack. I saw the bond, and instead of closing myself off to it, I pulled. I pulled at it and I thrust it toward Chase. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I laid my head on his neck, and the two of us-girl and wolf-fell asleep, into a dream within a dream. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Katniss isn't the kind of hero we're used to seeing in fiction. She reacts more than she acts, she doesn't want to be a leader, and by the end of Mockingjay, she hasn't come into her own or risen like a phoenix from the ashes for some triumphant moment that gives us a sense of satisfaction with how far our protagonist has come.
She's not a Buffy. She's not a Bella. She limps across the finish line when we're used to seeing heroes racing; she eases into a quiet, steady love instead of falling fast and hard. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
When the odds are bad, you change the rules. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Callum's basement had always been off-limits to me, and I wasn't dumb enough to believe the restriction was in place because that was where he hid my Christmas presents. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Jennifer Lynn Barnes quotes by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
I sunk into velvety nothingness. It caressed my skin, lapped at my temples, the nape of my neck. It circled me like smoke, its touch light, but all consuming. And just as I was about to lose consciousness, I heard the voice. 'Hello, Kali. I'm Zev. ~ Jennifer Lynn Barnes
