Book cover for A Most Unusual Demise
Things changed with the opening of the new library premises next to St Pancras Station. May did her best to adapt, but the brand-new building was like working inside a spaceship compared to her beloved Reading Room. So impersonal, too much ...more

Totally agree. It’s soulless.

D.E. Stevenson
“A particular feature of Stevenson’s oeuvre is the way in which characters that appear in one book may crop up in another context in a quite different title. Readers like this because in a way it reflects the way the world is; our lives are not linear narratives–they are meandering stories that take place in diverse settings and that are peopled by characters who drop in and out at various stages.”
D.E. Stevenson, Winter and Rough Weather

Gregg Hurwitz
“Every time I consider myself an adult, I think back five years to when I also thought of myself as an adult. And I’m aghast at how staggeringly blind I was. Maybe what I hold to be true right now will seem just as ignorant when I reflect back on it years from now.”
Gregg Andrew Hurwitz, Prodigal Son

T.J. Klune
“But I allow him to dream of such things because he’s a child, and who knows what the future will bring? Change often starts with the smallest of whispers. Like-minded people building it up to a roar.”
T.J. Klune, The House in the Cerulean Sea

L.J. Ross
“He lifted one tentative hand to cradle her face and watched her eyes darken. Another hand turned her, lifted her face to bestow the gentlest of kisses. As her hands lifted to frame his face, tracing the rough stubble she found there, she felt his momentary shock and it made her reckless. Her fingers arrowed into his black hair to pull him closer, urging him to go on. There was a battle waging inside him. Somewhere in the back of his mind, he felt the desperation in the kiss, could still taste the salty tears on her skin.”
L.J. Ross, Holy Island

“She had used all the tricks in the book to encourage him, to convince him, to cajole him into looking after himself. But it turned out that, all along, the only real motivation he needed to change was to start having sex with her mum. You have to be so careful what you wish for.”
Richard Osman, The Man Who Died Twice
