1 " You fuck - you ate my cat! "
― Kendare Blake , Anna Dressed in Blood (Anna, #1)
2 " No matter how far I go, I'm still your person. We stand together now. "
― Kendare Blake , One Dark Throne (Three Dark Crowns, #2)
3 " Anna's eyes soften, and the stubborn tears begin to recede. The way she stands, the way she breathes, I know she wants to come closer. New knowledge fills up the air between us and neither of us wants to breathe it in. "
4 " Girls, on the other hand, have always come easy. I don't know why that is, exactly. Maybe it's the outsider vibe and a well-placed brooding look. Maybe it's something I think I see sometimes in the mirror, something that reminds me of my father. Or maybe I'm just damn easy on the eyes. "
5 " You’re sure you didn’t leave? Didn’t try to explore Thunder Bay again, maybe go down to the park and, I don’t know, dismember some poor jogger? "
6 " The rhythm of the footsteps, the sound of whatever is coming down the ladder is driving both me and my mom steadily toward peeing our pants. "
7 " It will not be easy for him to see her dead, should they become close. But she has so few friends. She cannot turn one away. "
― Kendare Blake , Three Dark Crowns (Three Dark Crowns, #1)
8 " You make me want things that I can't have. "
9 " It's shitty I guess. They're my friends. But... everything I want to talk about I can't say to them. It feels so separate, like I've touched something that's taken the color out of me. "
10 " I hate telling people this. I never know exactly how my voice is going to sound saying it, and I hate the stricken looks they get on their faces when they don't know what to say back. "
11 " As special as it is to listen to your friends argue over whether or not you have a mental illness,I'm starting to get the urge to go back to class. "
― Kendare Blake , Girl of Nightmares (Anna, #2)
12 " The things that your eyes see plainly and cant forget are worse than huddled black figures left to the imagination. "
13 " You wouldn't think that people would believe that we all got so incredibly beat up—in so many interesting ways—from a bear attack. Especially not when Carmel is sporting a bite mark that is a spot-on match for wounds found at one of the most horrifying crime scenes in recent history. But I never fail to be surprised by what people will believe. "
14 " I can't believe that she's questioning the existence of magic when she's standing before me dead and talking. "
15 " I wish this knife was good for something besides death, that I could cut through time and walk into that house, into that kitchen where he trapped her, and get her out of there. I would make sure she had the future she should have had. "
16 " I finally find a girl I could really be with, maybe the only girl in the world, and I had what? Two months with her? It's not enough. After everything she went through - everything I went through - we deserve more than that. Or maybe we don't. Anyway, life doesn't work like that. It doesn't care about fair and unfair. "
― Kendare Blake
17 " I make my way to her table, seeing her eyes growing wider as I do. Ten or so other girls probably just developed instantaneous crushes on me, because they see Carmel likes me. Or so the sociologist in my brain says. "
18 " This is my favorite part of the hunting. Getting to know them . Hearing their legends. I want them to be as large in my mind as they can possibly be, and when I see them I don't want to be disappointed. "
19 " Using for a noble purpose is still using. "
20 " I had a million different dreams but none of them was stronger than the rest. In the end they probably would have paralyzed me. "
