Books Quote by Kami Garcia & Margaret Stohl
““Look at me Ethan. Am I Dark, or am I Light?' I looked at her, and I knew what she was. The girl I loved. The girl I would always love. Instinctively, I grabbed the gold book in my pocket. It was warm, as if some part of my mother was alive within it. I pressed the book into Lena's hand, feeling the warmth spread into her body, I willed her to feel it- the kind of love within the book, the kind of love that never died. 'I know what you are, Lena. I know your heart. You can trust me. You can trust yourself.””
