“You have to write the book that wants to be written. And if the book will be too difficult for grown-ups, then you write it for children.”

“I guess that's what saying good-bye is always like--like jumping off an edge. The worst part is making the choice to do it. Once you're in the air, there's nothing you can do but let go.”

“It amazes me how easy it is for things to change, how easy it is to start off down the same road you always take and wind up somewhere new. Just one false step, one pause, one detour, and you end up with new friends or a bad reputation or a boyfriend or a breakup. It's never occurred to me before; I've never been able to see it. And it makes me feel, weirdly, like maybe all of these different possibilities exist at the same time, like each moment we live has a thousand other moments layered underneath it that look different.”

Hi Melissa! Thanks for following :)) Hmm best ..."No problem! Thanks for returning the favour =) I'm anxiously waiting for Divergent to come in at the library; I've heard nothing but fantastic reviews for that one! My best book would probably be Lauren Oliver's Delirium -- I can't wait for Pandemonium next year!
Looking forward to sharing books with you!

I left a comment on your new blog and look forward to seeing more of your reviews up there :) I'll pop back once it's all up and running!"Thanks Lisa, and I agree, totally torn. I went there today and they said they're getting taken over by a liquidation company, and that their sale on books starts tomorrow. The store I went to here in SoCal said they'll be staying until the 30th of August, but I'm pretty sure that date is nationwide.
