“He kissed her like he was drawing a perfectly straight line. He kissed her in India ink.” ― Rainbow Rowell, Landline
This is the book that a friend loaned me.
This is the book that made me fall in love with Rainbow Rowell.
Georgie and Neal meet and fall in love in college. The story of their marriage is so complicated and beautiful and unique to them. It pulls at the heartstrings because that is real life. It is not a fairytale, happily ever after. It is hard work and tough decisions amid the everyday mundane. There are kids and homework and careers and family pressures. But there is still room for a little magic to remind Georgie what is really work living for.
“Neal didn't take Georgie's breath away. Maybe the opposite. But that was okay--that was really good, actually, to be near someone who filled your lungs with air.” ― Rainbow Rowell, Landline
