Do you think the ability to sleep in counts as a special skill?โ I asked Dad, trying to sound torn over the decision. โYes, list that. And donโt forget to write that you can eat an entire meal in under five minutes,โ he replied. I laughed. It was true; I did tend to inhale my food. โOh, the both of you! Why donโt you just write down that youโre an absolute heathen!โ My mother went storming from the room.
Kiera CassYouโre an idiot, Maxon Schreave. Your parents have completely sabotaged you. You could have a thousand girls set before you, and it wouldnโt matter. Youโre too stupid to see love when it stands right in front of you.
Kiera CassI kind of wanted someone to rearrange the stars so they spelled out his words. I needed them big and bright, and somewhere I could see then when things felt dark. I love you. And I'm so, so proud.
Kiera CassMaxon, this is my gift to you. I promise I will make every effort to see these girls through your eyes. Not the eyes of a queen, or the eyes of your mother, but yours. Even if the girl you choose is of a very low caste, even if others think she has no value, I will always listen to your reasons for wanting her. And I will do my best to support your choice.
