The Consequences of Fear by Jacqueline Winspear
4.0
I can feel the approaching end of Maisie’s journey. It makes me so sad. I also don’t know why she fell in love with Mark Scott. Just missed the boat completely on that love affair.
“Never let fears get in the way of happiness, because fear can lead to such irrational reasoning, and we can make dreadful mistakes, saying things we can't take back.”
“Fear was the scariest of emotions and it nestled there, growing ever stronger and sprouting shoots, a seed in the fertile soil of doubt.”
“Fear had to be handled with care, managed so it became a tool, not a weight
“And as she grieved, she realized that she had never trusted the world to keep herself or those she loved safe. From the moment of her mother’s death, she had known that terror could be around the next corner at any moment. Had there ever been a time when she felt the clutch of fear in her gut loosen its grip, so that she could have faith in the future?”
