I love the descriptions of the imagery. It is really like stepping into another world.

She is the best visual writer.



I like these quotes from it too:

“You may tell a tale that takes up residence in someone's soul, becomes their blood and self and purpose. That tale will move them and drive them and who knows that they might do because of it, because of your words. That is your role, your gift.”

“People see what they wish to see. And in most cases, what they are told that they see.”

“I would have written you, myself, if I could put down in words everything I want to say to you. A sea of ink would not be enough.' 'But you built me dreams instead.”

“Good and evil are a great deal more complex than a princess and a dragon . . . is not the dragon the hero of his own story?”


“I made a wish on this tree years ago," Marco says.
"What did you wish for?" Bailey asks.
Marco leans forward and whispers in Bailey's ear. "I wished for her.”

“She had never dreamed of what it would feel like to love someone so much; of all the things that had astonished her in her adventures, that was what astonished her the most. She thought the tenderness it left in her heart was like a bruise that would never go away, but she would cherish it for ever.”

(The Amber Spyglass)

That sounds really sweet

There are so many great quotes from that book, one of my all time favourites.

LilMouse

I love that feeling of having a book you always want to return to.

That's true.

“Why someone dies is not the same question as why they are gone.”
→ Legendborn, Tracy Deonn

LilMouse

Oooh, interesting. Very philosophical.

They who give to the poor lend to the Lord, and practical Christianity is the kind He loves the best, was all Dr. Alec answered, but it silenced the aunts and caused even prudent Uncle Mac to think with sudden satisfaction of certain secret investments he had made which paid him no interest but the thanks of the poor.



Rose In Bloom - Louisa May Alcott

Nice quote
