On Thin Ice Quotes

“I'm always really interested in what books people are reading here. A lot of the books I'm putting back are ones that I've read too . . .

― Michael Northrop, On Thin Ice

“I run through the figures one more time in my head. Being poor is like always being in math class.”
― Michael Northrop, On Thin Ice
