An Awful Lot of Rambling
To quote Josh Bennett, "I’m going to say this and it probably won’t sound good or eloquent or whatever and I’m probably going to ramble, but just let me say it, okay? Will you listen?"
Yes? Okay, thanks. Here goes.
So I've been sitting on this for a while now, but it's kind of an open secret so I'll just come out with it.

Tes mots sur mes l?vres by Katja Millay (April 28,2014)

“People like to say love is unconditional, but it's not, and even if it was unconditional, it's still never free. There's always an expectation attached. They always want something in return. Like they want you to be happy or whatever and that makes you automatically responsible for their happiness because they won't be happy unless you are ... I just don't want that responsibility.”
― The Sea of Tranquility

“Daylight won’t protect you from anything. Bad things happen all the time; they don’t wait until after dinner”
― The Sea of Tranquility
― The Sea of Tranquility
“There are so many things that can break you if there's nothing to hold you together.”

“My life is not this steeply sloping hour,
in which you see me hurrying.
Much stands behind me; I stand before it like a tree;
I am only one of my many mouths,
and at that, the one that will be still the soonest.
I am the rest between two notes,
which are somehow always in discord
because Death’s note wants to climb over—
but in the dark interval, reconciled,
they stay there trembling.
And the song goes on, beautiful.”
― The Selected Poetry of Rainer Maria Rilke

AHHH, no way! Jealous! Anticipating some hot Soren/ Kingsley, Nora/Wes scenes. I'm sure Tiffany Reisz doesn't dissapoint.

Thanks for the add, Katja. I really enjoyed reading The Sea Of Tranquility and look forward to reading more of your work. The characters from your story really touched my heart. :)
I finished TSOT on Sunday. I've tried to start the next book on my TBR list twice this week and I cannot get past page 8 because really all I want to do is go back and re-read your book! It deserves the two biggest compliments I can give: it made me post my first review ever and I actually want to re-read a book for the first time in well over 10 years. Thanks again for your artistry of words..simply beautiful!
