i was just reading a book and as soon as i read this part i felt extremely represented. i wanted to show it here
"In the absence of human relationships I formed bonds with paper characters. I lived love and loss through stories. I experienced adolescence by association. I'm a being comprised of letters, a character created by sentences, a figment of imagination."
hey Kalliope! the book is called shatter me from tahereh mafi, it's one of my favorite books and I'm re-reading it (trouble starting new things and then reviewing old ones), read it if you can! :)
