Emma Donoghue, Learned by Heart

FIRSTLY HI this is my first ask that’s so exciting!!! ♥️♥️♥️

i LOVEDDD learn by heart, but idk much about emma donoghue unfortunately :( there’s only a few choice authors i’m consistent with across books, but maybe in the future i’ll read another of hers! currently working on uploading all the other quotes i’ve highlighted from l.b.h. and the other books i’ve finished :) i would LOVE to hear about any recs though!

i appreciate the small things in life. like roots in dyed hair. even the blonde ones that make people look a little bald. Can a young sensitive man such as myself really make it big in New York?

“What to say, when time’s so short? Not that you’ll read these words, of course. Much as I long for you to read my words, I can’t bring myself to submit them to the censors’ gaze. These pages, like the others, I’ll drop out my window; let the wind take them. My taper’s dying. There’s a lesson: we are as grass.
