Kim Liggett
“We are the only Gods here.”
Kim Liggett, The Grace Year

Katherine Arden
“You shouldn’t have told them I was a girl. Then they might have believed that I was dangerous.”
Katherine Arden, The Winter of the Witch

Kim Liggett
“Because isn't that the biggest sin of all for a woman? Not to be of use.”
Kim Liggett, The Grace Year

Kristin Hannah
“Of course. Men always think war is about them.”
Kristin Hannah, The Nightingale

“Don’t date a girl who reads because girls who read are the storytellers. You with the Joyce, you with the Nabokov, you with the Woolf. You there in the library, on the platform of the metro, you in the corner of the café, you in the window of your room. You, who make my life so god damned difficult. The girl who reads has spun out the account of her life and it is bursting with meaning. She insists that her narratives are rich, her supporting cast colorful, and her typeface bold. You, the girl who reads, make me want to be everything that I am not. But I am weak and I will fail you, because you have dreamed, properly, of someone who is better than I am. You will not accept the life that I told of at the beginning of this piece. You will accept nothing less than passion, and perfection, and a life worthy of being storied. So out with you, girl who reads. Take the next southbound train and take your Hemingway with you. I hate you. I really, really, really hate you.”
Charles Warnke
