Quotes by Victoria Jenkins (?)

“No one could possibly understand what it meant to watch a person alter so drastically in front of them, to see them change and deteriorate until eventually there was just a hollow shell that no longer remotely resembled the person”
― Victoria Jenkins, The First One To Die

“She wondered what a newborn felt as it was expelled from the only home it had ever known, pulled from a place of comfort and security into a world that was bright and vast and unknown. Perhaps it was a blessing that no one ever remembered what those first few moments, hours and days felt like”
― Victoria Jenkins, The Midwife

“The cruelty of time, thought Alex. The world kept spinning, clocks kept ticking: time didn鈥檛 stop for anyone鈥檚 tragedy.”
