The Gilded Blade Quote

It’s been a few weeks since I finished The Gilded Blade and the whole Hawthorne/Inheritance Games universe and I miss it! When thinking back to this particular book I had to think about this scene where Toby is talking to Jameson and he can relate to him about his deep love for Avery because he felt that way about Hannah.

“I know what it’s like for your entire world to begin and end with another persons eyes, to have fallen so deeply in love with her mind and her strength and her soul that you will never be the same. I know slippery slopes and that little voice that says that without her, life isn’t worth living. I know what it’s like to want to burn the whole world down, and I know Avery.”

Thinking back to Toby’s storyline makes me emotional too so we’ll leave it there!
