Outrun the Moon

I’m struck by the impermanence of it all. You expect certain things to always be there, like the bakery on the corner, or the boy you grew up with. But when the very ground can eat you alive without warning, what’s to say the ocean won’t dry up? Or the stars won’t suddenly shut off? Nothing is forever.

— Loved the diversity, the cultural aspects and the smart/empowering heroine, but I was bored reading most of the time to be honest. It was just too dull for my taste.
