John Scalzi
“He was determined to be the most touristy tourist who had ever touristed,”
John Scalzi, The End of All Things

Tracy Chevalier
“Oh, I was lucky, you know, to get anyone. I was what they called an old bride of twenty-six. Of course I married him. Everyone needs to keep something private from their family.

Like a shutter in a rainstorm, banging against the window, I venture forth, retreat back, try afresh, retreat again. Nothing changes in my life and yet nothing is the same.

That did not help, Ed knew as the words hung between them and he had that all-too-familiar sensation of wanting to claw them from the air and stuff them back in his mouth.

We were all in small pieces that didn't fit together, too many countries, too many scars, too many secrets inside us.

How do you make a stranger so intimate when they could easily destroy you?”
Tracy Chevalier, Reader, I Married Him: Original Stories by Acclaimed Women Writers Celebrating Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre

Rebecca Skloot
“And in the late nineties, two women sued Hopkins, claiming that its researchers had knowingly exposed their children to lead, and hadn’t promptly informed them when blood tests revealed that their children had elevated lead levels—even when one developed lead poisoning. The research was part of a study examining lead abatement methods, and all families involved were black. The researchers had treated several homes to varying degrees, then encouraged landlords to rent those homes to families with children so they could then monitor the children’s lead levels.”
Rebecca Skloot, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks

Lisa Jewell
“But, what if it's not a mistake? What if it's true?"

"Well then, my angel... you'll be a very rich woman indeed.”
Lisa Jewell, The Family Upstairs

Christian Warren Freed
“The old stereotypes of fantasy and science fiction are dead. What was once considered foolish is now trending. Thank you internet age.”
Christian Warren Freed
