Top Kindle Highlights of 2018 – Part One (Blogmas #15)

Hello everyone,

It is only six days until Christmas, and I  hope you are all having an excellent week! Today I would like to share some of my favourite quotes that I came across in the books I have read on my Kindle in 2018. There are a fair few, so I have decided to split this into two posts 🙂

I still mostly read physical books, but one of the great things about a Kindle is the ability to highlight passages and make notes. They are also saved on Goodreads, which is even better!

When I read books, I love exploring the writing style and finding interesting, insightful, or inspirational lines. Here are some of the ones that stood out this year…

‘Ava and I are watching the first Harry Potter movie, which we’ve seen a million times before.’
My Mother’s Secret by Sanjida Kay – I just found this one relatable 🙂

I think about how emotion is energy and energy has to go somewhere, or is that false science?
Your Turn To Die by Sue Wallman

‘You can love someone so much, he thought. But you can never love people as much as you can miss them.’
An Abundance Of Katherines by John Green

Put a book down and it will wait for you forever; pay attention to them and they always love you back.
An Abundance Of Katherines by John Green

It’s true that comparison is the surest route to unhappiness
No Further Questions by Gillian McAllister
