Then in 2017, she discovered she has a rare disorder called Avascular Necrosis, which is incredibly painful. It dilutes the quality of life. Her body has stopped delivering blood to her hips and knees and she will eventually need replacements. While J.D. recovered from her bra

Quotes by J.D. Stroube  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Life is filled with unanswered questions, but it is the courage to seek those answers that continues to give meaning to life. You can spend your life wallowing in despair, wondering why you were the one who was led towards the road strewn with pain, or you can be grateful that you are strong enough to survive it.”
J.D. Stroube, Caged by Damnation

“There are people in the world, who are just wrong, and then there are the masses of population that are right, or at the very least they lie in the veil of between. I on the other hand, do not belong to any group. I don’t exist. It’s not that I don’t have substance; I have a body like everyone else. I can feel the fire when it burns against my skin, the rain when it caresses my face and the breeze as it fingers my hair. I have all the senses that other people do. I am just empty, inside.”
J.D. Stroube, Caged in Darkness

“A complete stranger has the capacity to alter the life of another irrevocably. This domino effect has the capacity to change the course of an entire world. That is what life is; a chain reaction of individuals colliding with others and influencing their lives without realizing it. A decision that seems miniscule to you, may be monumental to the fate of the world.”
J.D. Stroube, Caged by Damnation

I know what you mean about enjoying the originals. Abebooks usually has a great selection if you find yourself needing new ones again! :)


Wine Country Hi J.D.,

Thanks for the add! I look forward to comparing books and opinions. I love meeting other true L.J. Smith fans, I read HER vampire diaries (I refuse to read the fake ones) books so many times growing up that they fell apart and I ended up having to search the web for original copies to replace them :-)

I have been writing most of my life, but I was never brave enough to let anyone read them. I finally decided that it was better to put myself out there. :) I have to admit that it feels amazing to see that people enjoy what I write. :) Thanks for accepting the friend request! :) BTW, I noticed you have Dark Lover on your to-read list. You should read it soon! I didn't fall in love with the series until book 2, but it is an amazing series!
