Book cover for The Unselected Journals of Emma M. Lion: Vol. 8
“I see, Miss Lion,” he said, “you have a new pocket.” I blinked. “How could you tell? I thought the folds hid it quite well.” “You’ve a confidence that only comes with such an acquisition.”

Kristin Hannah
“Jack says I am a warrior and, while I don't believe it, I know this: A warrior believes in an end she can't see and fights for it. A warrior never gives up. A warrior fights for those weaker than herself.
It sounds like motherhood to me.”
Kristin Hannah, The Four Winds

Kristin Hannah
“I am forty years old, and I have only just learned this fundamental truth myself.
Love. In the best of times, it is a dream. In the worst of times, a salvation.
I am in love. There it is. I have written it down. Soon I will say it out loud. To him.
I am in love. As crazy and ridiculous and implausible as it sounds, I am in love. And I am loved in return.
And this --love-- gives me the courage I need for today.”
Kristin Hannah, The Four Winds

Janet Skeslien Charles
“We're bookmates," she said, in the decisive tone one would assert "the sky is blue," or "Paris is the best city in the world." I was skeptical about soulmates, but could believe in bookmates, two beings bound by a passion for reading.”
Janet Skeslien Charles, The Paris Library

Janet Skeslien Charles
“I haven't left my post!" she wanted to shout. "We're here." She needed to convince them that the ALP must remain open. "Libraries are lungs," she scrawled, her pen barely able to keep with her ideas. "Books the fresh air breathed in to keep the heart beating, to keep the brain imagining, to keep home alive. Subscribers depend on us for news, for community. Soldiers need books, need to know their friends at the library care. Our work is too important to stop now."

...."We are giving the students what they need, the public, the books they want, and the soldiers, what we can. It is after all, something, to continue to hold on, to hope for a wider contribution to humanity.”
Janet Skeslien Charles, The Paris Library

Jacqueline Woodson
“Harvest Time

When Daddy's garden is ready
it is filled with words that make me laugh
when I say them --
pole beans and tomatoes, okra and corn
sweet peas and sugar snaps,
lettuce and squash.

Who could have imagined

so much color that the ground disappears
and we are left
walking through an autumn's worth
of crazy words
that beneath the magic of my grandmother's hands

become

side dishes.”
Jacqueline Woodson, Brown Girl Dreaming
