Weekly Quote for Week 18-2021 ~ So Over You by Gwen Hayes
“My best advice is to be yourself. Unless you’re psychotic, then you might want to try a different tactic.”
Weekly Quote for Week 16-2021 ~ The Mysterious and Amazing Blue Billings by Lily Morton
He glances around the room and his eyes light on the pile of charity-shop paperbacks on the rickety table. “What about those?”
I shake my head dismissively. “No room for them. I can’t keep books.”
I wonder whether he caught the note of sadness in my voice, because he immediately switches the suit to one hand and gathers the books up under his other arm. “There’s plenty of room in my house for books,” he says briskly and nods as if to emphasise his point. “There’s a couple of titles here that I fancy reading myself.”
Moisture pricks the back of my eyes. Who is this man?

Weekly Quote for Week 14-2021 ~ I Love You So Mochi by Sarah Kuhn

Weekly Quote for Week 13-2021 ~ Robbergirl by S.T. Gibson

“Do not go talk to him,” Bird said.
“No problem.”
“Don’t even look at him,” she said.
“Now, that I can’t do. He’s so cute.”
Weekly Quote for Week 10-2021 ~ The Ankh-Morpork Archives, Volume I by Terry Pratchett, Paul Kidby, Stephen Briggs
The UU Library is theoretically the largest in the universe or, indeed, any conceivable universe; it has a diameter of about one hundred yards but, as far as we can determine, an infinite radius. The presence of so much stored magic does to time and space what a hot iron does to a pound of butter, so that you may well encounter places where the floor is now the wall, the books have turned into small clay models of hedgehogs and you yourself appear to be a device for coring apples. Students will therefore find it convenient to stick to the routes marked with chalk and the occasional banana skin.
Weekly Quote for Week 9-2021 ~ How to be Popular by Meg Cabot

Ty smiles, then looks at Jerry Rice. “Its eyes are seriously creeping me out. And I knew something was going on between you two.”
“You’re right,” Henry says. “Woods is my husband, and I’m her wife.”
