Book cover for Sit Stay Heal: How an Underachieving Labrador Won Our Hearts and Brought Us Together
Sometimes, in some roundabout way, the thing that I didn’t want to happen happens, and it leads to something else, and that something else turns out to be better than what I had hoped for.

Kristin Hannah
“Men tell stories. Women get on with it. For us it was a shadow war. There were no parades for us when it was over, no medals or mentions in history books. We did what we had to during the war, and when it was over, we picked up the pieces and started our lives over.”
Kristin Hannah, The Nightingale

Alan Bradley
“Feigning stupidity was one of my specialties. If stupidity were theoretical physics, then I would be Albert Einstein.”
Alan Bradley, As Chimney Sweepers Come to Dust

Kristin Hannah
“I know that grief, like regret, settles into our DNA and remains forever a part of us.”
Kristin Hannah, The Nightingale

Nora Ephron
“Reading is escape, and the opposite of escape; it's a way to make contact with reality after a day of making things up, and it's a way of making contact with someone else's imagination after a day that's all too real.”
Nora Ephron

Alan Bradley
“Anne of Green Gables was cuddled up next to Huckleberry Finn; The Hunchback of Notre Dame was wedged tightly between Heidi and Little Women; and Nicholas Nickleby leaned in a familiar way against A Girl of the Limberlost. None of the books were in alphabetical order, which made it necessary to cock my head sideways to read each one of the spines. By the end of the third shelf I had begun to realize why librarians are sometimes able to achieve such pinnacles of crankiness: It’s because they’re in agony. If only publishers could be persuaded, I thought, to stamp all book titles horizontally instead of vertically, a great deal of unpleasantness could be avoided all round.”
Alan Bradley, As Chimney Sweepers Come to Dust
