Elsket den historiske settingen. Dessverre veier ikke dette opp for de endimensjonale karakterene. Alt fra dialogene til de indre monologene var forutsigbare og uten dybde.
Women could compress a great deal into one look.
I will be a beautiful disaster.
We are all of us daily decaying, after all, the speed is our only variant.
Secrets decay as corpses do, growing ranker over time.

A useful maxim: two rarities combined call for close attention.

Change came so slowly you never noticed it creeping up on you, or far too fast for comfort, but it came.

Sometimes you had to laugh if only to keep from crying.

“Anyone ever tell you, you can't be hurt by something you don't believe in?"
Realization lights up Enwen's eyes. "That's why everything is out to get me.”

I am me because I choose to be me. I am what I want. Some people say you have to find yourself. Not I. I believe we create ourselves to be what we want.
Part of me has turned wild, and another part’s turned dark as endless night, and I’m not going to change back just because someone says I must.
Light! Women would belive anything about a man as long as it was bad. And the worse it was, the more they had to talk about it.
Dead men should be quiet in their graves, but they never are.
She probably told the thunder to be quiet. It probably did.
We are all fools if we live long enough.
Denne boken handler kort og greit om livet, og om at beslutningene vi tar, ofte endrer seg underveis. Det var noen interessante øyeblikk i historien, men også noen til dels "kjedelige" øyeblikk som ikke tjener historien noe særlig. Slutten skuffer mest. Som leser sitter jeg med flere ubesvarte spørsmål. Ting som jeg hadde regnet med skulle besvares, blir aldri belyst.
A secret spoken finds wings.
