"I'm torn because I really enjoy Borison's writing, but I really REALLY dislike the audiobook narrators for this series. The wait for the Kindle addition is very long and I have to do audio while I'm at work.
Bah. I'll just have to set this down and wait until I can read it with my eyes." — May 27, 2026 07:57PM

"I'm putting in my Currently Reading shelf because I want to come back to it. But honestly? The world is so insane, and the fact that it's always been this way is giving me too much anxiety to finish this book in one go. As an official country, the US is just as horrifying now as it has always been.
It's important to be aware and be a witness. But I also need a minute to slow the panic attacks." — Feb 19, 2026 07:28PM

"I'm enjoying this a lot, but I have to say that when an MC is constantly referencing a mysterious past, it distracts me from the current story. I'm so busy trying to piece those crumbs of details together that I have a hard time focusing on the extreme circumstances of the present narrative." — Sep 23, 2025 07:39PM

“There will be more danger when the rebellion is ended, I promise ye that, for there’s nothing so dark as a heart that’s lost hope.”
“Perhaps real wisdom lies in not seeking answers at all. Any answer we find will not be true for long. An answer is a place where we can fall asleep as life moves past us to its next question. After all these years I have begun to wonder if the secret of living well is not in having all the answers but in pursuing unanswerable questions in good company.”

“Perhaps it is no wonder that the women were first at the Cradle and last at the Cross. They had never known a man like this Man - there never has been such another. A prophet and teacher who never nagged at them, never flattered or coaxed or patronised; who never made arch jokes about them, never treated them either as "The women, God help us!" or "The ladies, God bless them!"; who rebuked without querulousness and praised without condescension; who took their questions and arguments seriously; who never mapped out their sphere for them, never urged them to be feminine or jeered at them for being female; who had no axe to grind and no uneasy male dignity to defend; who took them as he found them and was completely unself-conscious. There is no act, no sermon, no parable in the whole Gospel that borrows its pungency from female perversity; nobody could possibly guess from the words and deeds of Jesus that there was anything "funny" about woman's nature.”

“Is that "great cloud of witnesses" watching my way so as to judge or is it informing my way so that I may walk it? Do they hide the light so that I cannot see it or do they filter it so that its blaze will not blind me? Can a man see God face to face and live? Can I not see an eclipse better through a pinhole in a paper than without it?
We can't so much see light as we can see things because of it. So I do not meet God in a vacuum -- I meet Him in the world He has provided for me to meet Him in -- in a world of events and of places, of history (time and space), in a world of lives of people and their records of their encounters. I meet God in this world -- in the world of these things...
...and this is the world as best as I can remember it.”

“Look at us all -- we are all of us lost and in all of our different ways of pretending, we all fool ourselves into the very same hell.
Look at the cross -- we are all of us loved and one God meets us all at the point of our common need and brings to all of us -- all who will let Him -- salvation.”

“I spent my life folded between the pages of books.
In the absence of human relationships I formed bonds with paper characters. I lived love and loss through stories threaded in history; I experienced adolescence by association. My world is one interwoven web of words, stringing limb to limb, bone to sinew, thoughts and images all together. I am a being comprised of letters, a character created by sentences, a figment of imagination formed through fiction.”
