When I buy Rolaids at the drugstore, I love the lady who runs the place. I love the old man who’s stocking shelves. I even love the cashier with the insanely large hands who treats me like shit every other day. I don’t care if they don’t love me back.
This isn’t reciprocal.
It’s an outpouring.
Because if I give it all away, then no one can control it.
Because if I give it all away, I’ll be free.

Be your own place of safety, she told herself, straightening. No crossbar in the world could protect her from what lay ahead, and neither could a tiny knife ticked in her boot - though there her tiny knife would most certainly remain - and neither could a man, not even Akiva. She had to be her own strength, complete unto herself.

“I want to build a shrine to this book. It explores and debunks high school cliches and understands the language only teenage feelings speak. Its three narrators make a unique story not only to experience vicariously, but relatable. It will sit on my shelf next to a My So-Called Life box set and copies of The Virgin Suicides and Girl, Interrupted.”
—Tavi Gevinson, editor in chief, Rookie
