I also love developing charaters and facing them with different dilemas to see what happens. You may guess from this that I don't do a lot of detailed planning before I start!(less)

Roald Dahl
“The small girl smiles. One eyelid flickers.
She whips a pistol from her knickers.
She aims it at the creature's head,
And bang bang bang, she shoots him dead.”
Roald Dahl Revolting Rhymes

Markus Zusak
“Whoever named Himmel Street certainly had a healthy sense of irony. Not that is was a living hell. It wasn't. But is sure as hell wasn't heaven, either.”
Markus Zusak, The Book Thief

Kate Atkinson
“The Grim Reaper, Gloria corrected herself - if anyone deserved capital letters it was surely Death. Gloria would rather like to be the Grim Reaper. She wouldn't necessarily be grim, she suspected she would be quite cheerful (Come along now, don't make such a fuss).”
Kate Atkinson, One Good Turn

Emer Martin
“I asked them why when they persecute men, for religion or colour it was seen by the world as oppression and when they persecute women, it was dismissed as tradition.”
Emer Martin, Baby Zero

Friedrich Nietzsche
“And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.”
Friedrich Nietzsche

Eugenia (Genie In A Book) Dear Rachel,
Thank you so much for accepting my friend request and the opportunity to read your book "Water's Edge"
I feel honoured to have been your first Goodreads reviewer and have the privilege to read a unique, quality piece of work :)
It was a novel I thoroughly enjoyed and I really look forward to reading and reviewing the next one!

Very much looking forward to more books of yours in the future and best wishes,
Genie
