“Oh, that’s okay,” I say. “I’m more of a country music lover.” “Oh.” He says this like I’ve just confessed that I like to eat raw meat. “Why?” “I like the stories,” I say. “I’ve always liked stories.” “Book shop,” he says. “Right.”

“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”

“What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though.”
