“She never managed to find herself in these books no matter how hard she tried, exhuming traits from between the pages and donning them for an hour, a day, a week. We think in some ways, we have all done this our whole lives, searching for the book that will give us the keys to ourselves, let us into a wholly formed personality as though it were a furnished room to let. As though we could walk in and look around and say to the gray-haired landlady behind us, "We'll take it."” ThinkingWayGivingLooksBookMatterHardDoneWholeHoursWalksRoomsBehindsWeekKeysPersonalityPagesWhole LifeGrayTraitsSister Author:Eleanor Brown
“We were never organized readers who would see a book through to its end in any sory of logical order. We weave in and out of words like tourists on a hop-on, hop-off bus tour. Put a book down in the kitchen to go to the bathroom and you might return to find it gone, replaced by another of equal interest. We are indiscriminate.” BookEndsMightOrderInterestGoneReturnReaderEqualKitchenOrganizedHopsLogicalBusReplacedBathroomSisterTourists Author:Eleanor Brown
