Favorite Book Quotes

We've talked about YA novels in past posts, and I've written reviews of some of the ones I've read this year. I've interviewed a few YA authors also. One thing about YA novels is that some of them are full of great quotes. Who could forget Augusts' "I'm on a roller coaster that only goes up, my friend" or "That's the thing about pain...It demands to be felt" from The Fault in Our Stars


Or “We believe in ordinary acts of bravery, in the courage that drives one person to stand up for another" and "One choice can transform you" from Divergent.



And of course you can't forget the most popular quote from The Hunger Games:

Some of my favorite quotes are from the Chronicles of Narnia.


I've written a YA novel that I hope will be published in the near future. Here are a few quotes from my main characters.

“I’m a runner, not a fighter. All I’ve ever been good at is running.  Running from the visions, from the things that haunt me. Running from the things I can’t beat or change.” Kia 

“I don’t have the answers, but God does. You and me? We have things that can hold us back or we can embrace who we’re meant to be. Stop running from what you can’t change and run toward who you’re meant to be.” Thorn

"Funny how family can feel like strangers and friends can become family." Kia
