Do you like him? Ty asked. "Not that I care." "I do," I said, because it was true. Even though it didn't matter anymore. "Not that I care you don't care. Though you clearly do care, and I don't care about that either." "Well, I don't care that you don't care that I don't care. In fact i'm glad. Because, um, if I were seeming someone that I liked, I'd want you to be happy for me.""Are you seeing someone?" I asked, pretty sure he wasn't. "Not that I care. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
There isn't much of a Goth or Wicca scene in Exeter, but I went to a few places I know and asked around. A lot of people wouldn't talk to me because the Goths think I'm a bit of a baby bat, and the Wiccans think I'm a playgan."

"People think you're - a bat," Nick said slowly. "Well, of course. Many people think I'm a blueberry scone. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Are you telling me that I have magical powers ... because I can't walk through walls? That dosen't seem right. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan

He moves with the predatory grace of a penguin. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan

Have mercy, Dad," said Kami. "Tell me you're here to rescue me before they break out the Jell-O. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
You don't have to do anything you don't want to do," said Jared, low enough so that Kami wasn't sure if she was hearing it or understanding it through Ash. "Your mom's not the boss of you."

Ash smiled, rueful and charming. "My mom's kind of the boss of me."

"Nope," Jared said easily. "We time-share bossing you around, and it's my turn. I say do whatever you want. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Ash went in, casting a look that was half amused and half dubious back at her. His stride toward his desk was checked when he walked into the line of Jared's glare.

Ash gave him a chilly glance, then continued to his own desk.

Jared turned his attention to Kami. Do you want to go out with him?

We agreed to try to stay out of stuff like that when we were fourteen years old. You remember when we were fourteen! ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
It was the emotional equivalent of being stung in the pride by a jellyfish. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Jared told her he used to be an exotic dancer in San Francisco.'
'My body is a gift from God,' Jared said gravely. 'Except for my hips, which are clearly a gift from the devil. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I'm always on your side. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I can smite you " Nick grumbled. "Anytime I like. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
What could you teach me?" Jamie asked, a dimple flashing in his right cheek next to his earring. "Do I need to learn a secret magician handshake? Do I need to learn to do finger wands?"

Gerald burst out laughing. "I - " he said, and seemed somewhat at a loss. "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Like a finger gun, but only magicians get to do it," Jamie explained, grinning and shifting his schoolbag on one shoulder. He swished one finger in a dramatic circle, making a swooshing sound to accompany the gesture.

"We don't use wands," said Gerald.

"Don't think that wasn't a crushing blow for me. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I said very quietly, "Do you think you might need to go to the bathroom at any point in the near future?"
"Uh," said Carwyn, "what? No. What?" He paused. "I want you to know that was my first time," he added. "Not knowing what to say to someone. I always have something to say."
"Well, your first time didn't last long, but I guess that's always how it goes," I said. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
You're going to Hallow's Field on your motorcycle?"

"Want a lift?"

"No," said Kami. "I mean, you're going into a situation where something really bad might be happening, and you've decided to make sure they can hear you coming? Better hope being a tavern wench works out, because you, sir, will never be a ninja. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I like your jumper," she said into it.

"You like my what?" Jared asked. Kami tugged at his sleeve in response and he laughed. "In the civilized land of the Americas, we call that a sweater. A jumper is a dress. You might as well have just said, 'Why, Jared, what a fetching frock you're wearing today.' "

"Why, Jared, what a fetching frock you're wearing today," Kami said instantly, raising her head so she could lift her face up to his. "You look ever so pretty."

Jared laughed, a soft huff of breath, and rested his forehead gently against hers. "Your frock's fairly fetching as well."

Kami closed her eyes, embarrassed to let him see she was happy he'd noticed. "Thanks."

"Not as fetching as mine, of course," Jared added. "I am the prettiest. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I hate this, I want this to stop, how are we supposed to live with this, and how am I supposed to walk away? You're real and I hate you for it. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Do you love your country?"

"What, England?" asked Elliot. "Wow. Am I a poet in 1914?"

"What," said Commander Woodsinger.

"What," said Elliot. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I don't like wizard stories all that much. Stories about witches are better, because witches are morally ambiguous and traditionally disempowered. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Oh no, Nick" Jaime said in tones of supremely unconvincing shock, "how could you? When my back was turned for one momement. And my food was so delicious. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
It's the family motto," Ash said.
"Don't tell me, let me guess," Kami said, since Ash showed no signs of telling her. "Your motto is 'Blonds really do have more fun.' "
Another Lynburn motto possibility, if her mother was to be believed, was "Hot Blond Death. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Love always costs more than you can afford to pay," he said. "And it's always worth the price. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
They were standing in a very large room. The floorboards stretched in a pale expanse at their feet. There was so much dust on the floor that it had a pearly sheen.
"Even you could not nap on this floor," Kami told Angela.
"I don't know, a dust mattress might be very comfortable," said Angela. "Also possibly orthopedic. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
You should wear whatever clothing you feel most comfortable in. Being comfortable in yourself is the best way to be attractive to others. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
His desperation and misery swept her up like a storm capturing the sea. She turned her mind to even these feelings, because they were his, like his terrified rage in the lift when they had first met, being wrapped in his arms in the cold well, being dazzled by his wonder at the woods and her home and her. Like being a child, awareness of him the morning chorus that woke her and the lullaby that sent her to sleep, his thoughts always her first and last song.
I love you, Kami told him, and cut. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I suppose some were born acting, some achieve action, and some have action thrust upon while they wail feebly 'Dear God, no, let me sleep in.' I'm only acting once, and then never again. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Home in Ireland, I went to Collins Barracks and spent some time wandering around, making notes on the various guns, knives and swords. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
This is your life!" Jared shouted.
"That's right!" Kami shouted back at him. "It's my life! I get to decide what to do with it! Don't you dare act like my life means more to you than it does to me! ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
The most annoying thing, perhaps, was that the elven troop were obviously good people and were being kind to them, and yet Elliot felt subtly wrong-footed at every turn. He wondered if this was how Serene felt all the time, and he promised himself to bear it as well as she did. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
He had called girls to him before. There was nothing so easy whether you were walking into a classroom, a club, or down the street. All you had to do was send out the right signals, give her the right look, turn your body the right way, and never for a moment let it cross your mind that she might not be interested. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Jared glanced at Dad, then back at Kami, and said, "I'll call you later."

You have never called me once in the entirety of your life, said Kami. I'll talk to you in a few minutes. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
And about that," he continued. "Now that Kami and I have met, she likes me better than you. So you can leave. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
He kills people. Now I'm no expert, but doesn't that make you a bad person?"
Jamie glared at Nick. "You've killed a lot more people than he has. What does that make you?"
"Not a person," Nick murmured, not sounding particularly interested. "Surely you remember. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
You were not the first dream I ever had, but you were the only dream that ever felt real. You were the dream the taught me I did have a soul. I don't know how low I will fall or what evil I will do, but I know you. I know there is nothing between us and there never could be. But I would do whatever you asked. I would do anything you want. If I had anything Worth giving to you, I would give it. If I had anything to sacrifice, I would sacrifice it for you. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
People always hate those they rely on. I should know. As Mark spoke, I held his hand fast, leaned against him, smiled for the cameras in the circle of his protection, and I could not imagine hating anyone more. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Kami glanced over at Angela. Angela lay serenely with her hands folded across her chest and her lashes like black lace against her white cheeks. "You look so sweet when you sleep," Kami said. "Like an emo ten-year-old's first Vampire Bride Barbie. Pull the string on the back and she says cruel things to her hardworking friends. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Some magicians are rich, some are famous, some are stupidly good-looking.'
Jamie gave Nick a rather complicated look.
Nick raised an eyebrow. 'Some of us manage to be stupidly good-looking on our own. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Hello," said the beautiful elven maid. "I was just thinking, and I mean no offence, but - how can any fighting force crowded with the softer sex hope to prevail in battle?"
"Huh?" said Elliot, brilliantly. "The softer what?"
"I refer to men," said the elf girl. "Naturally I was aware the Border guard admitted men, and I support men in their endeavor to prove they are equal to women, but their natures are not warlike, are they? ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
You make a really compelling argument. Join me or get walled up alive with a corpse? You should be a politician. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Rusty, Dad needs to work and I'm going out, so you're babysitting."
"I like that word," Rusty said, settling down for a nap. "Come, babies. Let us sit together. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Jon Glass had vaulted over the fence and was now approaching a horse chosen by some sort of weird horse-knowledge method, or possibly because it was shiny. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Annabel was trying to hide her sword under her suit jacket without much success. People were staring ...
And then they weren't. There were no people, as if the whole town had forgotten as one that these streets and this square had ever existed. The deserted street they were racing down seemed darker than the busy street they had left, as if light was lost with memory, as if they were running into oblivion, and Mae didn't care as long as they got there in time. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Nah, Dad, I'm good. Please leave me in this hotel bedroom with my handsome boyfriend. And several of his relatives, and a very sharp weapon."
"Clearly I went badly wrong somewhere when raising you," said Dad. "Well, best to do down before Tomo gets into the vodka. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
All Ash had ever wanted was to be at home and surrounded by his family. Now, under the judgmental gaze of a hundred Lynburns, with a sneering Lynburn voice in his ear, he started thinking about the merits of running away and changing his name. "Ash Smith" had a certain ring to it. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Nick looked vaguely homicidal, but that was sort of his default expression. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
And you don't ever have to worry about what I feel. The way I feel about you won't change. You can do whatever you like to me. You could turn this town to dust, burn the woods until they were cinders, you could cut out my heart. It wouldn't matter. It would not change a thing."
"What if I ate a baby?"
Jared's mouth curved up at the corners, slow and not cruel at all. "I'm sure you'd have a good reason," he said. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Elliot finished his book in bed and pondered going to get another one. He only had so much time left, and he had so many books to get through. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
If the truth didn't help anyone, and love didn't last, what was there left to struggle toward? ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I am Serene-Heart-in-the-Chaos-of-Battle. Keep a civil tongue in your head or lose it ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
She is great," said Jared. "And beautiful. She's like a star to me, something bright and lovely seen from another world. She's someone else's sun. That's how all other girls are to me. You're my sun. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Ash and Rusty were both objectively better-looking than he was; she remembered knowing that, even though it no longer felt true. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Uh," said Ash from the door, "are you - all right?"

"Fine!" Kami said. She typed out: "With the advent of sperm banks, women realized the sheer uselessness of men, and by the year 2100 they were largely extinct" with extreme force. "Absolutely fine, never better! Why do you ask?"

"Er, because I heard you and Jared had a screaming fight. Also, you are typing like a maddened weasel taped to a keyboard."

Kami stopped typing. "You may have a point. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
What if I wanted to rule the world?" she asked lightly. "I might desire to sit on a throne of skulls and be the universe's dark queen."
"I'd totally help you with that," Jared told her. " I am so willing to be a minion, you have no idea. I will throw people into aquariums full of mutant octopi and sharks with lasers on their heads on command. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Who is this and what do you want?"
"Is that how you answer the phone to every number you don't recognize?" Ash demanded. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I realise people exist who don't read. But it's like I knew there were people who didn't breathe or eat: I can't imagine a life like that. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I don't really get scared. Want to know what else i don't feel?
PITY ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Books for teens are amazing and compelling, I think, because they're generally set in a time in people's lives when they are uncertain about who they are and who they love and what the right thing is to do. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Magnus remembered a town in Peru whose Quechua name meant "quiet place." He recalled even more vividly being obscenely drunk and unhappy over his heartbreak of that time, and the maudlin thoughts that had recurred to him over the years, like an unwanted guest slipping in through his doors: that there was no peace for such as he, no quiet place, and there never would be.
Except he found himself remembering lying in bed with Alec - all of their clothes on, lounging on the bed on a lazy afternoon, Alec laughing, head thrown back, the marks Magnus had left on his throat very plain to see. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I'm told I have the body of a god."
"A Greek god, or one of those gods with the horse heads or elephant's legs coming out of their chests?" Alan asked. "Next time someone tells you that, ask them to specify. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Oooh, hard to say," Angela sneered behind Kami. "Other than live without magic like everybody els, you loser. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I'm not saying this to upset you. I'm trying to tell you what you absolutely have to do. What if we were both dead?' asked Luke.
Elliot looked at his pudding and was very sad about his life and his choices. How had he wound up here, in a place where all he had was pudding - Elliot would have sold his soul for a chocolate bar - and awful people who at the age of thirteen asked questions like 'What if we were both dead. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I don't mean to cast a dark shadow on all your hopes and dreams, except of course I do, because that is who I am. I'm a dream ruiner. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Holly got attacked last night," said Jared.

"So why aren't you at Holly's house?" Kami demanded.

"Several reasons," said Jared. "One being that Holly has a motorbike, and she can run over anyone who tries to attack her. Of course, if you'd take a spin on my bike with me …"

"It's too dangerous. Your bike isn't equipped to drive on the ice," Kami told him. "Which I'm assuming there will be plenty of, since hell will have frozen over the day I get on that thing. I fancy a stroll through the woods to school. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Books written by boys are given very different treatment to those written by girls: they're even given very different covers. People also expect, in this YA-booming world, girls to be less experimental than boys: girls are achieving a lot of success, but they're confined. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
People will come up with a hundred thousand reasons why other people do not count as human, but that does not mean anyone has to listen. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I could've said no," said Angela. "I'm actually rather expert at it. 'Do you want to go out with me?' guys say, and I say, 'Why, no, I'd rather spend an evening marinating my own eyeballs in a lemon sauce.' 'Do you feel like getting up before three p.m.?' No. 'Can you give me a smile?' No. 'Could you be less of a bitch?' No. If you didn't hear it from me a lot, there was a reason for it. I wanted to say no to the whole world, until you. The stupid sorcerers would have come without the newspaper, would have - would have done what they did, but because of your newspaper we made friends with Holly, and we won over Ash. And we got to yell at people. I like doing that. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
The girl might have an unsettling crying problem, but she was pure steel. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Two harpies, one stone," he added, and then saw the way Serene was looking at him. "A diplomatic stone! A diplomatic stone. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
How many fingers am I holding up?" he inquired. Lucille regarded him blearily and said, "Avocado. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
It's Russell Montgomery the Third, actually," said Rusty, still grinning. "But I'd be obliged if you keep that bit of information to yourself."
"I don't imagine any of us cares enough to remember," Jared said. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Sometimes I want to be human for you. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I don't want to seem ungrateful when you have given me this thoughtful, homemade and totally terrifying gift," Jamie told him. "But you can't imagine I'm going to use it."
"Just to hold someone off. Just remember what I taught you," said Nick. "Just buy a little time so I can come get you. Jamie. I'll come get you. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
There were certain kids at school who could only be described as mad, bad, and dangerous to teach, and Jared Moore was their king. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I'm not sorry," Kami told him. "I wouldn't go back to a time before we were born, make it right, and lose you. I wouldn't be me without you. I wouldn't, I never want to... Lose you. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Who ever he is, I agree with your mother," said Dad as he entered the kitchen. "Stay away from him. Stay away from them all until you're of marrying age. Once you reach a nice, mature fifty-four, gentlemen callers will be welcomed here. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Tell the wind and fire where to stop. But don't tell me. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Awkward situation. I think Ash is off to rock back and forth in a corner and seriously wonder how his life got to be this way. He's a sensitive plant."
Jared nodded. "Might be better than stalking out to a balcony to wrap yourself in a cloak of bitterness and self-hatred like metaphorical Batman, though."
"Or trying to make light of a situation with constant awkward jokes." Kami agreed. "Whatever. Emotional health is for losers. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Enough, she thought, enough, enough: nobody was allowed to make her this unhappy. She didn't have to stay around him, any more than she had to keep her hand in a fire. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Your soul is like the souls of a thousand monkeys on crack, all smushed together. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
You will always be my favorite person in the world. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
And other people hurt you. And you were both angry, and maybe you were both scared, but no matter what dark thoughts you have you didn't hurt her. Someone else hurt her. Don't waste time blaming yourself when you can spend time planning how to destroy our enemies."
"Can we get that last thing embroidered on a cushion, Aunt Lillian?" Jared asked. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Ready?" Jaime echoed. "Yes, yes, I am ready. I am ready to drink a lot of liquids and lie on the sofa moaning faintly all day long. That is what I am ready for. I cannot engage in physical activity of any sort or my head will fall right off. Is that what you want Nick? Because if so, I find that hurtful. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Once you start thinking about the lies people tell when they don't know they're telling them, the truths people reveal when they think they're lying, then you can start to build a world. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
And I am always flattered," Rusty continued, "but I love my sister. Not in an 'I love my sister and I want to make out with her' way, that would be terrible and disturbing, but in an 'I love my sister, and I'm not going anywhere near the girl she likes' way. Be a big mess. Life is hard for me, with all my irresistible sexual magnetism. It's a real problem, almost as bad as the fact that my steps are now the number one crying spot in Sorry-in-the-Vale. I have to maintain control of the situation at all times or my life would devolve into a nonstop romantical frenzy". ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
What about us?" she demanded. "We don't have anyone else to help us!"

"So? I don't care."

Mae seemed momentarily floored, her righteous outrage lost in uncertainty. She glanced at Jamie, who was standing about doing his impression (Nick had to concede it was good) of a wounded deer. She reached out a hand to clasp his shoulder. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
It's better this way," said Elliot. "And if I came back - you're probably both going to die. I'd be stranded and you'd be dead." They were soldiers. This way, Elliot would never know if they died. He put the photo down. "I didn't mean that," he said. "You're not going to die. I don't know why I said that. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Tomo did not join them. Kami saw that he had taken one of his violent fancies to Ash, the way he had taken to lemonade, Mr. Stearn's bulldog, and his favorite toy race car that had burned with everything else in their house. He walked happily alongside Ash, holding on to his hand, and clearly wished for nothing more.

Ash seemed alarmed to have been so firmly taken possession of by an eight-year-old. He and Tomo fell back a little, until they were walking with Jared and Kami.

"I am so sad about my underwear," Kami announced, and Ash looked as if he regretted all of his life decisions.

"Not in front of the little boy!" he said reproachfully. "Anyway, you were saying that you would borrow clothes from Holly and Angela."

"I'm the third tallest in my class," Tomo informed him, with the air of one out to impress. "And I know all about underwear."

"You heard the man," said Kami. "Besides which, no. I cannot possibly borrow underclothes from Holly and Angela. Bras especially."

"I know," said Jared.

"Oh, you do, do you?" Kami inquired. "And how do you know, may I ask?"

There was a slight flush along the lines of Jared's cheekbones. "Observation."

It was probably sad that this cheered Kami up, but Jared usually seemed so wary about her body, the physical fact of it, that the simple knowledge that he had been looking did please her. She leaned back infinitesimally closer into the warm line ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I thought 'artistic' was cunning code for 'nude,' " said Kami. "Is that not true? Have I been lied to? Do I have a tragically perverted mind? Oh well, I guess that's a shame. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Hey, Kami. I was wondering if I could get a dance with the best-looking girl in the room."
"Sure," Kami said. "Go ask Angela. Take your life in your hands. I'll miss you and all, but I'm going to give her an alibi for the murder, because that's what best friends do. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I've changed my mind," said Nick. "The demons can have you. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Here's the thing," said Kami, doing her buttons up fast, trying to keep things casual. "I don't think that people who are freaked out by each other's physical existence should date."

"I cannot believe you just did that," Jared said. "Are you crazy?" He still looked shaken, which Kami found irritating. She was sure other girls received far more enthusiastic responses when they started with the undressing.

"Well, I can't believe you walked in and said that," she shot back. "In front of Angela!"

"I had to work myself up to it," Jared said. "I may have lost my head."

"I was acting on an impulse!" Kami said. "I still feel it was a sensible impulse."

"So what you're saying is, we're both crazy," said Jared. "Well, this is going to be fun. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Well. Yes. Someone's trying to kill me. But you don't have to make such a big deal out of it. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Whenever I thought about dying, I always thought that you would remember me. I thought about living on in your mind. I knew I would be safe there, that I would be good there, remembered as better than I had been. I know all you have lost. I know everything is changed, but when I thought of death I didn't think of going away. I always thought of it as still being with you. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Whether you're starving in a garret or living in a castle like J. K. Rowling, I had this image of the author as a flawless, composed individual, serene in the knowledge they were creating art. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Technically speaking, you drive like a rabid chicken who has hijacked a tractor. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
He could change something, maybe, even if he could not change enough. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Men are the softer sex, squeamish about blood in the main. I know it's the same for human men, Luke was extremely disinclined to discuss my first experience of a woman's menses."

Luke stared ferociously into the middle distance, obviously trying to visualize himself somewhere else, having an entirely different conversation. Serene patted him on the back.

"Perfectly all right, I should have had more respect for your delicate masculine sensibilities."

"Thank you," said Luke, sounding very far away. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
Remember," he called. "Just be yourself, and everyone will love you!"
Nick rolled his eyes and made a rude gesture, and Alan drove the car away laughing. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I saw now how different the same features could seem when they were illuminated by different spirit. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
You always make jokes about you looks," Angela said. "You really shouldn't. You're all right. You know, fairly fanciable."
"I knew it!"
"But not to me," Angela said. "Not ever. Not because of your looks, because you are half a ton of crazy in a a five-pound sack."
"Ah, but is it a bodacious sack? ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Sarah Rees quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
She was kind of in love with him. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
