• Pensé en todas las clases de amor del mundo. Se me ocurrieron diez sin siquiera intentarlo. La forma en que los padres quieren a sus hijos, la forma en que quieres a un perrito o a un helado de chocolate o a tu casa o a tu libro favorito o a tu hermana. O a tu tío. Están esos tipos de amor y luego está el otro. El que se cae.

• That's what being shy feels like. Like my skin is too thin, the light too bright. Like the best place I could possibly be is in a tunnel far under the cool, dark earth. Someone asks me a question and I stare at them, empty-faced, my brain jammed up with how hard I'm trying to find something interesting to say. And in the end, all I can do is nod or shrug, because the light of their eyes looking at me, waiting for me, is just too much to take. And then it's over and there's one more person in the world who thinks I'm a complete and total waste of space.
