-->Vanessa couldn’t see Catty at the moment, but then, she reasoned, no one standing on the shore could see Vanessa, either, and yet she was definitely there. Her spirits soared. She spun around and chased after the air current, but whatever had been there was gone…

* There's quite a few sad moments in ''The Choice''. In the beginning, Jimena is arrested and thrown into jail on false drug charges. Her first day in jail is just her sitting quietly, feeling sick and nearly in tears, while thinking about how she never wanted to come back to this.

*** In a similar vein, Serena mentions that when she was younger, she used to answer people's thoughts just enough so that they noticed, and that it really upset her mom. She mentions later that she wonders if her powers are reason why her mom left.

* In ''The Sacrifice'', the Daughters manage to finally free Stanton from the Atrox and turn him back into a regular human. It's sad to see him happily relishing that he's no longer bound to evil, only for him to have to [[SadisticChoice turn back to the Atrox in order to gain back his powers to protect Serena from Lambert]].

** What's really sad is that at the time, Jimena didn't understand that she had premonitions, so [[ItsAllMyFault she thought that she had somehow caused the shooting herself]]. Thankfully, Maggie was able to set her straight once they met.

* Jimena's story about when she first discovered her powers. She was seven years old and playing with her friend, Miranda, and suddenly saw a vision of Miranda in a casket followed by the two of them walking down a certain street ending with a car driving by and Miranda being shot by whoever was inside. Although Jimena had the two of them walk a different route from school to try to stop the vision from happening, she ended up staying home with the flu one day and realized it came true when she heard the gunshots from her bed.

* From how it's described, a follower's existence is this itself. It's mentioned in the beginning of the series that many people become followers after they previously had their hope stolen by them, since it seems like a better choice once everything seems hopeless. It's pretty telling that early villain Cassandra is introduced cutting herself, with Stanton saying that she does so to feel since she can't really feel pain anymore.
** When Vanessa visits Morgan after Stanton steals her hope, she discovers that Morgan has begun cutting as well, saying that she can't feel anything anymore either.

* There's a sense in the later books that daughters aren't as close as they used to be, which can be sad seeing how much a team they were early on. It feels a bit similar to how high school friends in real life drift apart over time.

* When the girls manage to rescue Tianna and Shannon from [[spoiler: Mary]], they decide to bring Shannon to live with Catty and Kendra. Catty tells her that she'll be a great little sister and they have some cute sibling-ish bickering. We never get a chance to see how this would have played out since soon after this, Catty and the others are kidnapped by the Atrox and she only gets to go back to Earth to pick up Vanessa and Stanton before they return to Nefandus and she [[spoiler: dies]].

“Catty?” Vanessa asked, expecting to hear her friend laugh.

The first time she had made Catty invisible, Catty had zoomed about the backyard, swooping down on Vanessa and buzzing over her head.

Vanessa couldn’t see Catty at the moment, but then, she reasoned, no one standing on the shore could see Vanessa, either, and yet she was definitely there. Her spirits soared. She spun around and chased after the air current, but whatever had been there was gone…
