Jarrod said: " Take Harry Potter - make him a private eye and put him in some challenging and sometimes disturbing situations. That's what you get with Harry Dresden. I'm not generally a "fantasy" or "mystery/crime" fan, but this combo hit a nerve with me. ...more "

Jarrod’s Notes & Highlights

The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern

1 note & 8 highlights

Word of mouth is a more effective method of advertisement than typeset words and exclamation points on paper pamphlets or posters. It is impressive and unusual news, the sudden appearance of a mysterious circus.

Jarrod’s Quotes

“He was quiet, holding that string and kite with everything he had. The way he looked. Eyes raised up, body tethered by one long thread to the big stormy sky, the whole of him up there with his words, talking to whoever was listening. I’ve not seen a sight to match it. No bones of his had ever been shoved in a feed bag. The man was a giant.”
― Barbara Kingsolver, Demon Copperhead

“This is what I would say if I could, to all smart people of the world with their dumb hillbilly jokes: We are right here in the stall. We can actually hear you.”
― Barbara Kingsolver, Demon Copperhead

“The wonder is that you could start life with nothing, end with nothing, and lose so much in between.”

“I think you have to have faith in people before they earn it. Otherwise it's not faith, right?”

“Maybe even suicide would have been too active. Maybe in some lives you just float around and expect nothing else and don’t even try to change. Maybe that was most lives. ‘Yes,’ said Nora, aloud now. ‘Maybe I got stuck. Maybe in every life I am stuck. I mean, maybe that’s just who I am. A starfish in every life is still a starfish. There isn’t a life where a starfish is a professor of aerospace engineering. And maybe there isn’t a life where I’m not stuck.”
― Matt Haig, The Midnight Library
