Quotes by Ashley Herring Blake  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Even girls made of stars are captives, bound at the wrists and traded like property. Even girls made of stars aren't asked, aren't believed, aren't considered worth the effort unless they can offer something in return.
Even girls made of stars buy into those lies sometimes.”
