1 " Hannah linked her arm in his and he smiled down at her. 'Let's do this.'Thank you, universe. THANK YOU. It was in that moment that he felt the page turn and a new chapter in the story of his life begin. Ed knew that the best was to come. "
― Lucy Powrie , Bookishly Ever After (The Paper & Hearts Society #3)
2 " The thing is, masking isn't always good. It takes a lot of effort and energy to hide a big part of yourself, even if you're not doing it intentionally. Masking is a bit like going into survival mode. You do it because you have to, rather than because you want to; and while everyone has the ability to mask to some degree, for autistic people, we can spend most of our lives doing it without even realizing. "
3 " You just have to ride the storm, young man, and make it out the other side. It will get easier eventually. "
4 " If Ed could pretend to be a ghost, he could act his way into being a bookseller. How hard could it be? "
5 " The Paper and Hearts Society is for ever. It will always be with us, even when we're not together. For ever and always. "
6 " It means I see and experience the world a bit differently from people who aren't autistic, but that's not necessarily bad- while things can sometimes feel difficult, I wouldn't change who I am for the world. It's made me who I am! "
