    I feel like we were jibbed a little with this one because we didn't get to hear what she thought of love! But what a cliffhanger! xD Fair enough... I mean, love can mean a range of things to different people.

    I mean those are literally the last lines of the book. XD Though I will say, this is from the prequel to the Lunar Chronicles series and to make a very long story short…
    Spoiler:
    In her conquest for power she released a horrible plague on earth that slaughtered many humans. No one knew they had released it so when she showed up miraculously with the cure they were all kissing her feet to get it. Her one demand was to marry the Prince of the East Commonwealth. From there she planned to unleash her wolf soldiers on the rest of earth and take over to prove she is the best queen her kingdom ever had. Oh and she murdered the guy she originally married, whom she once loved very dearly, just so she could do this plan. She also burned the nursery of the rightful heir to her throne to ensure that no one could replace her.

    I mean… her sister was arguably worse than her.

    I'm tipping they have some family issues.

    Spoiler:
    Their parents were kind of murdered. Also Queen Levana was manipulated by her sister to jump into fire so the Queen is permanently disfigured. Stuff like that.

    I'll be honest, this is what happens to me too sometimes. I often feel like reading transports me to a whole different world and it is often difficult to stir me from it once I'm in. No matter where I'm at, if I'm reading, very little can disturb me.

    Oscar Wilde has always struck me as a very interesting character. His perception of things is always amusing and I'll be honest, there are times where he changes my own understanding of life with his words. This is one of those times where I think I understand what's he's trying to say, but I'm probably wrong. I think Oscar Wilde is trying to say that we should enjoy the little things in life and not be swept up in the mess of life.

    Thanks to @solivagant for submitting this quote.

    I really like this quote, as it's one of the many ways to describe exactly what reading is. In this case, the reader is a sailor surfing the seven seas of the chapter book they are experiencing. It's always nice to read such descriptions.
