“Bookstores attract the right kind of folk. Good people like A.J. and Amelia. And I like talking about books with people who like talking about books. I like paper. I like how it feels, and I like the feel of a book in my back pocket. I like how a new book smells, too.”
― Gabrielle Zevin, The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry

“I love you, Hermione,” said Ron.”
― J. K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

“And because, most crazy of all, all that kindness, all that magnificence, was sitting there just because of his words”
― Jojo Moyes, One Plus One

“But...books are so much more. Some of them are webs; you can feel your way along their threads, but just barely, into strange and dark corners. Some of them are balloons bobbing up through the sky: totally self-contained, and unreachable, but beautiful to watch.
And some of them―the best ones―are doors.”
― Lauren Oliver, Pandemonium
