we live in a house of mirrors

There's a meme to post a line from each of your wsip without context? I'm game. Here are the only ones I have open atm:

1. He knows he's not supposed to hate anything--it's not the Jedi way--but being fourteen is definitely awful and he despises it.

2. Artoo whistles in what Finn takes as agreement--he still hasn't learned binary, though he's picked up some key phrases in Shyriiwook, mostly involving the degree of stupidity or uselessness Chewie attributes to various modifications subsequent owners of the Falcon have made to her systems.

3. Dick remembers this Jason--all teenage bravado and endless wisecracks; he still misses him sometimes, even though they were never particularly close before--before.

4. Her gaze drops to his mouth for a brief moment and when she meets his eyes again, she can see a flare of triumph in them, and she realizes she's in so much trouble.

And a book meme from around the way. The list is from here originally.

Bold = read, italics = read another book by the same author, strikeout = didn't finish
