Gillian Flynn
“It was a town that bred complacency through cable TV and a convenience store.”
Gillian Flynn, Sharp Objects

Kathleen Rooney
“Given that the majority of communication to which we are subjected in a day consists of advertising, if nearly all of that advertising insists on regarding us as pampered children, what does that do to us? It winds us up with a godforsaken second term of smarmy granddad President Ronald Wilson Reagan for one.”
Kathleen Rooney, Lillian Boxfish Takes a Walk

Yaa Gyasi
“There should be no room in your life for regret. If in the moment of doing you felt clarity, you felt certainty, then why feel regret later?”
Yaa Gyasi

Harper Lee
“Revival time was a time of war: war on sin, Coca-Cola, picture shows, hunting on Sunday; war on the increasing tendency of young women to paint themselves and smoke in public; war on drinking whiskey—in this connection at least fifty children per summer went to the altar and swore they would not drink, smoke, or curse until they were twenty-one; war on something so nebulous Jean Louise never could figure out what it was, except there was nothing to swear concerning it; and war among the town’s ladies over who could set the best table for the evangelist.”
Harper Lee, Go Set a Watchman

Elizabeth Strout
“This is a story about a mother who loves her daughter. Imperfectly. Because we all love imperfectly.”
Elizabeth Strout
