We are eagerly anticipating the release of the fourth and final book in the Caster Chronicles series by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl, Beautiful Redemption, which comes out on the 23rd of October, 2012. *excited* :D
To celebrate this, we are having a Caster Chronicles Book Quotes Marathon, where I'll share my favourite quotes from the first three books in the series.
The Caster Chronicles consist of the following books:
Beautiful Creatures (Caster Chronicles #1), Beautiful Darkness (Caster Chronicles #2), Dream Dark (Caster Chronicles #2.5) and Beautiful Chaos (Caster Chronicles #3).
The book for today is book #3 from the series, Beautiful Chaos.
Goodreads Summary:
Ethan Wate thought he was getting used to the strange, impossible events happening in Gatlin, his small Southern town. But now that Ethan and Lena have returned home, strange and impossible have taken on new meanings. Swarms of locusts, record-breaking heat, and devastating storms ravage Gatlin as Ethan and Lena struggle to understand the impact of Lena's Claiming. Even Lena's family of powerful Supernaturals is affected - and their abilities begin to dangerously misfire. As time passes, one question becomes clear: What - or who - will need to be sacrificed to save Gatlin?
For Ethan, the chaos is a frightening but welcome distraction. He's being haunted in his dreams again, but this time it isn't by Lena - and whatever is haunting him is following him out of his dreams and into his everyday life. Even worse, Ethan is gradually losing pieces of himself - forgetting names, phone numbers, even memories. He doesn't know why, and most days he's too afraid to ask.
Sometimes there isn't just one answer or one choice. Sometimes there's no going back. And this time there won't be a happy ending.
Quotes:
* While I thought I was learning how to live, I've been learning how to die.
-Leonardo Da Vinci
* I have been bent and broken, but- I hope- into a better shape.
-Great Expectations, Charles Dickens
* For a few minutes, what e had, we knew.
* I wondered if wishing was the same thing as praying. If hoping for something badly enough could make it happen.
* The one thing that doesn't abide by human majority is human conscience.
-To Kill A Mockingbird, Harper Lee
* I guess some decisions are made before you make them.
* 'This is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.
* "Do you believe in love before first sight, L?"
"Do you believe in love after last sight, Ethan?"
* The one word that would come anyway, whether or not we said it. Good-bye.
* I wasn't much of a poet, but I had the truth, and that was enough.
