Amazingly Said
2nd paragraph p 38 (Mike Jung)
"Write what you know to be true." Write your lived experience into existence. Write your truth. p5 (Shaun David Hutchinson)
The happiness someone wears and puts out into the universe should never be trusted to be the same amount of joy one has within. p181 (Adam Silvera)
I really hope anyone reading this understands that if your "stupid" reason is eating you alive, then it's far from stupid. p183 (Adam Silvera)
I write sad stories for teenagers because young adults need to see that there is no such thing as a happy ending when you're that age. Because life is more than your teenage years. p185 (Adam Silvera)

1st full paragraph on p 167 (Meredith Russo)
Have you found your people yet? You absolutely must: they are going to make your life so much more enjoyable. p205 (s.e. smith)
When so many people dislike you because of something you can't control, it turns out that you become an easy target for abuse. p207 (s.e. smith)
Isolation
Young people like that lonely undergrad in the snow-covered reaches of Vermont are often cut off from connections, resources, and community they need to learn more about disability-- including mental illness-- thanks to a combination of adult ignorance, disablism, and social structures. p203 (s.e. smith)
