This would have been a four, but the book lost the plot at the end and was way too lenient on abusers.

Quotes by Aaron H. Aceves  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Why is the world like this? How is the world like this? How is it that humans have created a society that allows a child to come to the conclusion that they would be better off dead than alive because they like the same sex?”
Aaron H. Aceves, This Is Why They Hate Us

“People are exhausting. Sure, they can be fun sometimes; they can “open you up to new experiences” or whatever. But the anxiety leading up to spending time with them and the emotional drain afterward make them not worth it.”
Aaron H. Aceves, This Is Why They Hate Us

“Our minds are truly the one place where no one else can follow us. Even if we try, if we constantly express every thought that comes to mind, if we exist as a walking stream of consciousness, we won’t be able to convey everything that’s going on. There are emotions and feelings and sensations that we’d never be able to articulate.”
Aaron H. Aceves, This Is Why They Hate Us

“Some parents pin all their hopes and dreams on their children, and as a result, those kids feel all kinds of pressure to be some sort of familial savior destined to achieve greatness and keep their extended family from drowning.”
