"I was very reluctant to pick this book up because as a mother of young children, losing any of them even for just a few minutes is my terror. But I saw enough rave reviews that I finally decided to borrow it from the library. I’m only up to page 40 and I am ALL IN." — Aug 08, 2026 07:58PM

Rivkah’s Quotes

“So you want a knife, a nice sharp knife. You hone that blade to its limits. It even cuts through stone when you want it to. It saves your life. And then you're outraged when it cuts you accidentally. You see, knives don't switch off. And neither do people, not when you hone them to a fine edge.”
― Karen Traviss
