There's not much more disappointing than scoring a used copy of a book that's been on your TBR list for ages -- in hardcover -- and having it be less than expected, but that's what happened with Audrey Niffenegger's Her Fearful Symmetry.

Erin Morgenstern
“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.”
Erin Morgenstern, The Night Circus

Ann Patchett
“It is said the sesta is one of the only gifts the Europeans brought to South America, but I imagine the Brazilians could have figured out how to sleep in the afternoon without having to endure centuries of murder and enslavement.”
Ann Patchett, State of Wonder

Stacy Schiff
“And in the absence of facts, myth rushes in, the kudzu of history.”
Stacy Schiff, Cleopatra

Lisa Unger
“Uselessness, she thought, was the permanent condition of parenthood.”
Lisa Unger, Fragile

Melina Marchetta
“It's funny how you can forget everything except people loving you. Maybe that's why humans find it so hard getting over love affairs. It's not the pain they're getting over, it's the love.”
Melina Marchetta, On the Jellicoe Road
