Meeting your soul mate is like walking into a house you’ve been in before — you will recognize the furniture, the pictures on the wall, the books on the shelves, the contents of drawers. You could find your way around in the dark if you had to.

I wanted to read this fast, so I could finish it before the month of May was out, but I quickly realised this isn’t a book you just hurry through. It deserves to be taken in slowly. It deserves all your undivided attention. 

Absolutely freaking adored the writing style.
