Love Quote by Rainbow Rowell
““As far as Eleanor was concerned, that just showed how wonderful it was to hold Park's hand. (Besides they didn't just hold hands. Park touched her hands like they were something rare and precious, like her fingers were intimately connected to the rest of her body. Which, of course, they were. It was hard to explain. He made her feel like more than the sum of her parts.)””
