Recommend me a book using 2 or more quotes from that book
Hello, I'm looking for books with good quotes!
I'm asking for at least two quotes to get a better idea of the book.
Also if you can include a short description of the book, that's even better!
Any genre is welcome
Thank you 🙂
Here’s one I always recommend – *The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo* by Taylor Jenkins Reid
“People think that intimacy is about sex. But intimacy is about truth. When you realize you can tell someone your truth, when you can show yourself to them, when you stand in front of them bare and their response is ‘you’re safe with me’ – that’s intimacy.”
“You have to decide where your loyalty lies. And I’ve never been loyal to anyone or anything other than myself. I had to be. Everyone else left.”
It’s about this reclusive Hollywood icon finally telling her life story to a young journalist – full of old Hollywood glamour, secrets, and honestly some of the best character development I’ve read in years

“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times”.
“It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known.”

“I don’t become fearless just because I know my options are do something and die versus do nothing and still die.”
“Every new minute we’re alive is a miracle.”
“A new memory to laugh over is just as good as reflecting on an old one.”
They Both Die at the End by Adam Silvera

I love this quote from Light from uncommon stars by Ryka Aoki.
The pov is the protagonist Katrina who is a violin prodigy and was abused as a child, talking about her childhood violin
*She had slept with it. She woke up with it. She had danced with it. There was no need to apologize. There was no need to mourn, for it was here.
Her father might have smashed it, but he could not erase the music. Nothing could.
And if she had never given it a name?
As she listened to Miss Satomi, Katrina realized she could give it one now.*
