Lev Grossman
“She was too tired to feel anything more, she wanted a book to do to her what books did: take away the world, slide it aside for a little bit, and let her please, please just be somewhere and somebody else”
Lev Grossman, The Magician's Land

Maggie Stiefvater
“It was hot as Hades. It was spring, but it had suddenly decided it was summer. Virginia spring. You know how that is. Heavy, somehow.”
Maggie Stiefvater, The Raven Boys

Ian McEwan
“Perhaps the greatest reading pleasure has an element of self-annihilation. To be so engrossed that you barely know you exist.”
Ian McEwan

Madeline Miller

Stephen  King
“And will I tell you that these three lived happily ever after? I will not, for no one ever does. But there was happiness. And they did live.”
