“They say time heals all wounds, but they fail to mention it’s a bitch of a journey.”
― J.L. Drake, quote from Mended


“He leans down, brushing his lips over my ear. “I’m scared.” His whisper nearly breaks me. “I’ve fallen for you, Savannah. Please catch me.”
― J.L. Drake, quote from Mended


“I start to turn, but stop and lean back over the table, snatching the Snickers bar and placing it in front of her. “Just saying.” I see Humphrey cover his mouth, clearly getting my joke about the commercial. ‘You’re not yourself when you’re hungry.’ Cole reaches for my arm and nearly pulls me out of the room. Once the door is closed, he bursts out laughing.”
― J.L. Drake, quote from Mended


“She tucks my hair behind my ear. Now I know where her son gets it. “Thank you,” she sniffs, struggling to hold herself together. “Thank you for coming into our lives, for loving us the way you do, and for making my son and the rest of us incredibly happy.”
― J.L. Drake, quote from Mended


“Melanie is out with friends and wanted me to join them, but all I want to do is watch old reruns of Lie to Me.”
― J.L. Drake, quote from Mended



“My heart hurts, but I push aside the pain. I will not let my emotions run me, even if I did just let the love of my life walk out the door. No, Savi, you kicked your love in the ass out the damn door. Fuck.”
― J.L. Drake, quote from Mended


“Let her walk a little on her own, then she’ll run back to you. I promise.” “How do you know?” She sits her tea cup on her saucer and takes his hand in hers. “Because I’ve been on this earth a lot longer than you, and I know true love when I see it. You’re lucky enough to have found it this early in life. Most of us wait a lifetime or never find it. Give her space, honey. She loves you. Never doubt that.”
― J.L. Drake, quote from Mended


“You mean Savi is on that plane by herself?” “Let it go,” Daniel warns. “No! Someone should be with her. She’s facing The American and Lynn! Cole, you should be there, not hiding behind your desk.” Cole drops the thick folder, making John jump. “You don’t think I want to be there, Mark? You don’t think it’s turning me inside out that my girl is a state away and only an arm’s length from the people who tried to kill her? I was ordered to stay behind and do my job. I was ordered to leave for Mexico when all I want to do is be in that courtroom with her. I’m not hiding. I’m following orders since I didn’t last time.”
― J.L. Drake, quote from Mended


“To troubled times that only make us stronger. To unexpected love that only makes us fall harder.”
― J.L. Drake, quote from Mended


“I’m scared.” His whisper nearly breaks me. “I’ve fallen for you, Savannah. Please catch me.”
― J.L. Drake, quote from Mended

“Короткое, ежедневное сближение человека с человеком не обходится ни тому, ни другому даром: много надо и с той и с другой стороны жизненного опыта, логики и сердечной теплоты, чтоб, наслаждаясь только достоинствами, не колоть и не колоться взаимными недостатками.”
― Ivan Goncharov, quote from Oblomov

― Jeanette Winterson, quote from Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit

About BookQuoters

BookQuoters 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.
