Friday Favorites #5

This week I'm highlighting my 8 favorite book quotes from this year. Enjoy!
“I want to tell her not to speak, want to say it, but her lips are on mine again and I taste me and I taste her and I don't taste what we're saying and I don't taste Noah. I taste Camus—I owe to such evenings the idea I have of innocence.”
“In my mind I am eloquent; I can climb intricate scaffolds of words to reach the highest cathedral ceilings and paint my thoughts. But when I open my mouth, everything collapses.” 
“My eyes break open. Two shattered windows filling my mouth with glass.”
“Hello and good-bye are not as simple as everyone thinks.” 
“Cushions had been sliced apart and were bleeding stuffing onto the floor.” 
“I'd choked back so many tears, they'd become a lake of sadness in my belly.” 
“The story you choose to tell isn't always the story you believe.”
“Colt has the subtlety of a car alarm.”

  1. I've only read a couple of these...Warm Bodies and First Day on Earth both sound great.

    Nice quotes! I'll have to check out some of these books :)

  2. I liked another one from Shatter Me:
    "Raindrops are my only reminder that clouds have a heartbeat. That I have one, too.”
