    Summary

    But Gideon can’t fix her. Can’t bring her mother back. Can’t make her father come home. Can’t make her worthy enough to even ask for it. She can’t make the Lord forgive her.

    Except she doesn’t say any of that. It’s too hopeless. Too pathetic.

    Instead, it’s a weak plea that does escape her. But how could she ever understand? What is God to an atheist? What connection do the two of them have when it’s her whole world?

    “Has anybody ever died for you?” Harrow whispers, “Would anyone ever? People are selfish. They’re cruel. We hurt eachother, we take from eachother—and that’s why. That’s why I believe. Even if it makes me a fool in your eyes, I have to.”

    -

    In a rural, hyper-religious country town in central Australia, Harrow and Gideon grow up sharing a wall. Deeply, reverently, irrevocably in love, but violently steeped in enough religious shame to hide it, they fail to learn the difference between love and worship, want, and lust.

    Summary

    “I could’ve killed you, you know. I could still kill you, if I wanted it.”

    James laughs, something bitter, draped in all the fossils of old wounds that have died and been buried.

    “The fall from the top is softer than you think.” He says it like he knows it, like he’s tasted it, Icarus on his back with waxen wings melting into his flesh, “If you close your eyes, it might even start to feel like flying.”

    (Or, James Potter often feels like he’s drowning in himself. All the things he’s supposed to be and the things he is. That is not exclusive. Sometimes, people are not how they seem.)

    Summary

    “But I don’t want you to leave.”

    “And I can’t promise you I’ll stay.”

    Or,

    Regulus Black has been dying as long as he can remember, dreaming up a future on the stages from a room he never leaves. Miraculously, he meets a boy who promises him everything and more. But promises are only made to be broken.

    Two summers, six years apart, a love that was never meant to be.
