That's all I'm going to include in this post! There are only quotes for the books I've posted reviews for because I always go through and like quotes while I'm writing my review. So no Queen of Shadows yet (the review is taking so long to write!) but soon!
What are some of your favorite quotes?
I also have a huge list of favorite quotes, at least two or three for every book I read! Usually I'll find them/put them up while writing my reviews also :) you picked some really great ones (I haven't read many of the books you mentioned which I need to remedy soon!) lovely post as always

I really need to get better at keeping track of quotes that I like! I always forget to put them down! That quote from Breathe, Annie, Breathe was amazing. I actually still remember reading it and saying to myself, "Now I know for sure that he loves her." Great post and even greater quotes! :)
