He looked straight into my eyes, which threw me off guard, because nobody ever looked me in the eye like that. Maybe Patti and Jay, but they didn’t hold my stare like he was doing now. He didn’t look away, and I found that I couldn’t take my gaze off those blue eyes.

There's a city below this city. It's been there far longer than Los Angeles has. Below your feet, there are cavernous hall and tunnels that stretch for miles and miles. There are four quarters...

“I’m not ready to let go of life,” I whispered.
“I’m not either—for you or for me. But knowing I have no power over death this time makes me feel terribly, wonderfully normal. And some deep part of me likes that. And that scares me.”

I think we cry to release the animal parts of us without losing our humanity. Because inside me is a beast that snarls, and growls, and
strains toward freedom, toward Tobias, and, above all, toward life. And as hard as I try, I cannot kill it.

The faerie shifted, and I tensed, ready to attack if it tried to stomp Puck like an irritating cockroach. But the giant only pulled his line out of the river and turned to face Puck square on.

Sixty-seven nights. I try to rationalize it. Sixty-seven
nights is nothing. I try to divide up the number, to fractionalize
it, to do something to make it smaller, but
nothing divides evenly into sixty-seven. So I break it
up. Fourteen countries, thirty-nine cities, a few hundred
hours on a tour bus. But the math just makes the
whirring go faster and I start to feel dizzy.

The moment my eyes met with his, the other students in the room blurred into the background. My heart felt
like it was pumping at a faster than normal rate, and my lips parted slightly as I took in the sight of the boy
who looked so familiar, even though I couldn’t remember where we’d met before.
