added a quote:
"Don't struggle too hard to understand people, Sym. They're hideously complicated. Unhappy people do the oddest, most terrible things, just trying to keep despair at bay. All you have to do is accept them...go around them...take evasive action." — Geraldine McCaughrean | |

added a quote:
"The interior? That empty, featureless plateau, rising up and up to high-altitude nothingness with no feature fixing its center -- it mesmerized me. The idea of it took me in thrall. It was so empty, so blank, so clean, so dead. Surely, if I was ever to set foot down there, even I might finally exist. Surely, in this Continent of Nothingness, anything -- anyone -- had to be hugely alive by comparison!" — Geraldine McCaughrean | |

added a quote:
"Like everything perfect, he set up a ferocious pain inside me -- a flickering, griping sort of pain, because nothing as marvelous as that is ever within reach, is it? Nothing as beautiful can ever last." — Geraldine McCaughrean | |

added a quote:
"When Titus speaks, I can hear every word. For me, that's like when the optician slides home the right lens and all the e's and g's and o's and c's become perfectly clear again and it isn't a struggle, even to read the bottom-most line...His voice touches places inside me like someone moving through a house, flicking light switches...No peering into corners for what's been said." — Geraldine McCaughrean | |
