“... you can change lots of cosmetic things about your life. You can get a graduate degree and have your pick of cities to live in and careers to pursue. You can move from coast to coast, from apartment to house to apartment to cottage and back again. But at the end of the day, you're still yourself.”

Hey! I've been missing chatting with you. Hope all is well with you. Big season for some great books, isn't it. Posting review of "The End of the Wasp Season" asap. Please see me on "interiorsbydeb2" goodreads site. Take care, Miriam. I'm going to check out "Dispatches." Loving "Night Circus," too, and "The Lantern."Deborah/TheBookishDame
