“First bubble baths. Now Disney parks. You're shattering every creep vampire myth I've ever heard.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Kira knew that his tounge felt like a vibrator set to the speed of Oh Hell Yeah”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Bath toys are reserved only for the oldest, more lethal vampires.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Does no one think to warn people before they meet me?" Vlad muttered, shooting an irritable look at Mencheres.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Bubbles. On a scale of one to ten, a bubble bath has to rank zero as far as things I'd expect an older-than-dirt-badass vampire to indulge in. The only thing that would surprise me more would be if you pulled out a rubber ducky.
-Kira to Mencheres”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Do you want to be put under first?” she asked Lewis as they sat down.
“Huh?” he replied in confusion.
Something like a cough came out of Vlad that jerked her head up. Vampires didn’t need to cough. Was that a muffled laugh?
“You know.” Kira’s eyes flashed green at Lewis, and her fangs seemed to jump out of her gums. “Get bespelled so you don’t remember this.”
Lewis appeared even more confused. “If that’s what you want.”
I will not as for pointers from Dracula, she swore to herself. I will not. “Yeah, I’d feel better about that. So, ah…look into my eyes.”
Another strangled sound came from Vlad’s direction. Now Kira was sure it was a laugh. She was determined to ignore him.
Lewis obediently stared at her, and Kira tried to make her voice sound confident. “You don’t feel anything. You’re not afraid.”
“I am,” came Vlad’s immediate reply. “If you tell him wolves are the children of the night next, I might hurt myself laughing.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Dead or not, you must be bored with women telling you how you look like the hottest, most exotic wet dream they’ve ever had. No wonder the thought of you, grapes, and some scented massage oils crossed my mind – and if you drop that towel again, I’m going to need a cold shower.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Bloody hell, grandsire," were Bones's first words as he approached. "You've left behind a wreckage of burned bodies, dead vampires, missing persons, threatened Guardians, and video evidence of our race's existence. Then you go on holiday. You really do have a death wish”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“I think Mount Everest is gorgeous, too, but that doesn’t mean I have any intention of trying to climb it”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Do I feel ancient to you now?" he murmered. "Too different from the person you loved before you knew this?"
Her eyes were already glowing green, and her full lips parted. "No, you don't feel too ancient." Her voice was husky. "Or too different. You feel like mine. Whoever you were, whoever you are...you're mine."
Mencheres smiled, his fangs stretching to their full length. "So you have spoken, so it shall be decreed. For all eternity.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“It was ironic; he held her captive, yet she’d captivated him.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Cat cleared her throat in the tense silence that followed. “Uh, before this goes any further, let’s at least introduce ourselves to your friend. I’m Cat, and this is my husband, Bones. We’re part of Mencheres’ twisted little fang family.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Lewis obediently stared at her, and Kira tried to make her voice sound confident. “You don’t feel anything. You’re not afraid.”
“I am,” came Vlad’s immediate reply. “If you tell him wolves are the children of the night next, I might hurt myself laughing.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“I can’t believe you bit me there,” she finally said. “But what I really can’t believe is how it felt.”
A smile curved his lips. “There are perks to being a vampire. That is one of them. I’ll enjoy showing you the others.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“If anyone other than you had me fly halfway around the world just to keep me waiting while you were obviously lingering in bed, I’d have my driver run them over. Twice.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“He smiled, so sensual and beautiful, it was another form of bliss just looking at him.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“I’ve heard the expression climbing walls, but I never thought I’d experience it, let alone like that,” she murmured, her mouth curling into what was probably a dreamy smile.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Just because some of us make a mistake in love once doesn't mean we're doomed to repeat it.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Deep, bone-melting pleasure surged through Kira’s subconscious as he thrust forward again, almost causing her to shout at the crash of rapture filling her.
“That is what I feel when I’m inside you.” His voice was low, eyes lit up with blinding green. “And you will feel every measure of the same, I promise.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“You don't have to echo my feelings, Mencheres, but you can't talk me out of them either. I love you" Her smile was wry. "Deal with it.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Or for the gorgeously bare vampire to give her a sensual massage while feeding her peeled grapes.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Mencheres slid through the water toward her, drawn by the same inexorable compulsion that led moths to dance with flames. He'd had several lifetimes' worth of reason, cold machinations, and, ultimately, emptiness. Perhaps the moths knew what he didn't, that the joy of the flame was worth the price of destruction.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Hanya karena sebagian dari kita pernah mencintai orang yang salah, bukan berarti kita dikutuk untuk selalu mengulangi kesalahan itu (Kira)”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Siapa pun kau dulu, siapa pun kau sekarang... kau adalah milikku (Kira)”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Vlad looked mildly affronted. “I’m twice as old and twice as capable.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Kira had a warrior’s spirit inside her sleek, feminine frame, for true valor was best revealed when defeat was inevitable.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“The future is like water. All our actions ripple over it, changing its reflection.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Perhaps the moths knew what he didn’t, that the joy of the flame was worth the price of destruction.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Nothing revealed character more than seeing the culmination of a lifetime’s worth of decisions.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from Eternal Kiss of Darkness
“Just because some of us make a mistake in love once doesn’t mean we’re doomed to repeat it,”

“The rhythm built up, high resonant notes from the buzzing xylophone, the off-scale dipping warble of the flute, the eerie, strangely primeval bass of the synthesizer.
The others punctuated the music with claps and sudden piercing shrieks from behind their veils. Suddenly one began to sing in Tamashek.
"He sings about his synthesizer," Gresham murmured.
"What does he say?"
I humbly adore the acts of the Most High,
Who has given to the synthesizer what is better than a soul.
So that, when it plays, the men are silent,
And their hands cover their veils to hide their emotions.
The troubles of life were pushing me into the tomb,
But thanks to the synthesizer,
God has given me back my life.”
― Bruce Sterling, quote from Islands in the Net
“O great and mighty Master Li, pray impart to me the Secret of Wisdom!’ he bawled. A silly smile was sliding down the side of his face like a dripping watercolor, and his eyeballs resembled a pair of pink pigeon eggs that were gently bouncing in saucers of yellow won-ton soup. To my great credit I never batted an eyelash. ‘Take a large bowl,’ I said. ‘Fill it with equal measures of fact, fantasy, history, mythology, science, superstition, logic, and lunacy. Darken the mixture with bitter tears, brighten it with howls of laughter, toss in three thousand years of civilization, bellow kan pei—which means “dry cup”—and drink to the dregs.’ Procopius stared at me. ‘And I will be wise?’ he asked. ‘Better,’ I said. ‘You will be Chinese.’” Li”

“I was aesthetically impressed but failed to understand the importance of it. Unfortunately, Braxaná do not express ignorance; therefore I couldn’t ask, “What is it?” as directly as I would have liked. After a moment I looked up at him, the elevation of one eyebrow indicating that I was intrigued enough to hear what he had come to say.”

“Щастието ми не бе тъй театрално, беше по-търпеливо, по-дискретно.”

“it's when you're on the row
that you notice that

try to keep that

if possible”

Boy21BookQuoters is a community of passionate readers who enjoy sharing the most meaningful, memorable and interesting quotes from great books. As the world communicates more and more via texts, memes and sound bytes, short but profound quotes from books have become more relevant and important. For some of us a quote becomes a mantra, a goal or a philosophy by which we live. For all of us, quotes are a great way to remember a book and to carry with us the author’s best ideas.
We thoughtfully gather quotes from our favorite books, both classic and current, and choose the ones that are most thought-provoking. Each quote represents a book that is interesting, well written and has potential to enhance the reader’s life. We also accept submissions from our visitors and will select the quotes we feel are most appealing to the BookQuoters community.
Founded in 2023, BookQuoters has quickly become a large and vibrant community of people who share an affinity for books. Books are seen by some as a throwback to a previous world; conversely, gleaning the main ideas of a book via a quote or a quick summary is typical of the Information Age but is a habit disdained by some diehard readers. We feel that we have the best of both worlds at BookQuoters; we read books cover-to-cover but offer you some of the highlights. We hope you’ll join us.
