Can you tell me what happened?" Her lips thinned as she shook her head. "'Tis not a happy tale."" You have me reading a book about a girl who tries to kill an entire town. Anything else at this point would be a pick me up.

About This Quote

If you are reading a book about a girl who tries to kill an entire town, it would be nice to have something to cheer you up. The girl is so upset about the town she lives in that she tries to destroy it so it can be rebuilt. However, this is not a happy story. The girl will not be happy until her town is gone or until her father convinces her that everything will be okay.
