Idaho by Emily Ruskovich
"Idaho [2017] – ★★1/2

Emily Ruskovich’s debut is a strange book. Idaho alludes to some accident which happened some time in the past in the woods of Idaho. That accident involved a family of four: Wade, Jenny and their two daughters, May and June. Jump" Read more of this review »

"I am much more driven by a strong narrative plot than beautiful prose. Maybe substance over style - although ideally a combination of both. This book is very much style over substance - i can appreciate the beautiful writing but got bored of it quite" Read more of this review »

“Never do what you can’t undo until you’ve considered well what you can’t do once you’ve done it.”
Robin Hobb, Assassin's Fate

Robin Hobb
“To Fitz and the Fool.
My best friends for over twenty years.”
Robin Hobb, Assassin's Fate

Robin Hobb
“The knowledge that he had left me with no intent ever to return had come over me in tiny droplets of realization spread over the years. And each droplet of comprehension brought its own small measure of hurt...He had wished me well in finding my own fate to follow, and I never doubted his sincerity. But it had taken me years to accept that his absence in my life was a deliberate finality, an act he had chosen, a thing completed even as some part of my soul still dangled, waiting for his return.”
Robin Hobb, Fool's Assassin

Robin Hobb
“His cracked lips moved.
Beloved.
He couldn't say the word, but I knew it.
And so did his Fool.”
Robin Hobb, Assassin's Fate

“There's something stalking us. Off to the side of the road, moving through the forest.'

Kettricken smiled.”
