“They were always reminding themselves to stop measuring life in coffee spoons, mornings and afternoons, to keep swimming way, way down to the bottom of the ocean to find where the mermaids sang, each to each. Where there was danger and beauty and light. Only the now, Ashley said it was the only way to live.”
From ‘Night Film’ by Marisha Pessl.
‘Six of Crows.’ Not normally a YA person, but I needed something to get lost in. I loved all the characters, and it had such a banger of a plot.
