Book Quotes of the Week

"There's the story, then there's the real story, then there's the story of how the story came to be told. Then there's what you leave out of the story. Which is part of the story too." Margaret Atwood

"A good novel tells us the truth about its hero; but a bad novel tells us the truth about its author." G.K. Chesterton

"I have consistently loved books that I’ve read when I’ve been sick in bed." Tracy Chevalier

"Books don't change the world. People are who change this. Books only change people" Caio Graco

"Reading is sometimes thought of as a form of escapism, and it's a common turn of phrase to speak of getting lost in a book. But a book can also be where one finds oneself; and when a reader is grasped and held by a book, reading does not feel like an escape from life so much as it feels like an urgent, crucial dimension of life itself." Rebecca Mead
