“It was never really a choice, was it? Wanting her. Killing her.”
“A thought came to her: a story of its own, one that only just began writing itself in her mind: a story of two women, one human, one Made.”
“Like she was more than a human girl. Like she was a summer storm made of flesh.”
“For the queer readers. You deserve every adventure.”(Two extra things I need to add: 1.) this is ownvoices for the queer rep + 2.) the author is ARMY = no choice but for me to stan forever. Okay, goodbye. I’m off to pray to all the higher powers for book two immediately. Also, jokes on all of you, because this is ghost Melanie reviewing this, because I died at the tide pool scene.)
You couldn’t depend on much in this world, but you could depend on this: love brought nothing but death. Where love existed, death would follow, a wolf trailing after a wounded deer.
Justice was a god, and Ayla didn’t believe in such childish things. She believed in blood.
A drop of water gleamed on Ayla’s lower lip. Strangely, it made Crier want to—drink.
“Humanity is how you act, my lady […] Not how you were Made.”

“Fear is a good thing, Lady Crier. Fear means you are alive, and you want to keep it that way.”
“Ayla wanted to see her break things, wanted to see her broken, wanted to watch her break apart, wanted to be the cause of it.”
