“I love reading books because...
1. books teach you how to live.
2. books teach you how to love.
3. books encourage you and give you hope.
4, books lift you up when you are down.
5. books take you to places and times you could never otherwise visit”
Caroline Lawrence

“Flavia watched Flaccus lie down and close his eyes. She wanted to ask him a dozen questions. How had he found out they were back in Italia? Why was he helping them? What was marriage to Prudentilla like? Why had he looked so hurt when he found her kissing Tranquillus? Flaccus’s muscular forearm was over his eyes to keep out the bright sunshine. Presently he fell asleep. His arm slipped back above his head and his forehead relaxed. Although he was twenty, he suddenly looked very young. Flavia swallowed hard. She realised she was still completely and utterly in love with him.”
Caroline Lawrence, The Roman Mysteries Complete Collection

“All the wealth in the world is no good if you don’t have a family.”
Caroline Lawrence, The Thieves of Ostia
