Something good will come from the bad. It always does. That's how life balances itself out. That's how people keep going.

They are going to burn you at the steak when they find out that you're beautiful, funny, AND intelligent. Fuck them. Be all three. Keep the gold dust in your blood. Be royal as fuck. But don't you dare become small and still. The hardest ones to hold are worth the most.

“Sometimes I reread my favorite books from back to front. I start with the last chapter and read backward until I get to the beginning. When you read this way, characters go from hope to despair, from self-knowledge to doubt. In love stories, couples start out as lovers and end as strangers. Coming-of-age books become stories of losing your way. Your favorite characters come back to life.”

Happy #HarryPotter20thAnniversary , witches and wizards!
I'm 29, so I've read the "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" book when I was 9. At what age did you read HP?

Let's play association game! Name the book and the place you associate it with.

Mine is Lord of Shadows and ocean cliffs near Pigeon Point Light Station. Mmmm, since then, every time I pick up this book, I feel salty ocean sprinkles and warm sun on my skin. Best reading nook experience so far.

"That's the problem. We let people say stuff and they say it so much that it becomes okay to them and normal for us. What's the point of having the voice if you're gonna be silent in those moments you shouldn't be?"

Magic can't grant any personal changes but circumstances can.

How good can be a book that shatters the reader? For a while it felt like the heaven has frozen after I finished the book. I was so in love during all those magnificent pages and then pretty shocked with the end. But that's the point! We need to be dazed to stay grounded.
