on books

"[he] was just a guy from another life, the repository of hopes that were years past their use-by date". this is from one of the books by marian keyes.

moving on is super hard but, it will happen when you are ready. it's in your hands not his.

her books are great, i've read all her novels except one and a few of her essays. the characters in her books are so real. you can relate to them in many ways. not like, the beautiful heroine is torn between two men and is devastated cause they are both lovely, blah.
