“Have you ever opened a book with zero expectations but by the last page, it’s gripped your heart? That was how I discovered my all time favourite book. The small bookshop I was at didn’t carry the title I wanted, so I ended up browsing and picking up something else. A real stroke of good luck.”

“My purpose should be abundantly clear. I wanted your books.” “That can’t be the only reason!” he exploded, losing his own fiery temper in the face of her col composure, the fireballs on his fists sending sparks in his agitation. “Can’t it?’ she asked, tracking the trail of sparks with idle interest, completely uncowed.”

“Mike said, “He seems like a nice fella.” [...] “Little dumb, though,” Mike said, feeling remarkably brave. Sean squinted at him but said nothing. “Told me he didn’t have time for reading,” Mike clarified. “That books were boring.” “The horror,” Sean gasped, clutching at pearls that didn’t exist.”

“A book is something in between — between words and fiction, between the past and the future, between images and the edge of reality. There’s so much to say about writing. But what comes out is always something new… Another night spent, another life, another eternity.”

“Our new Save the Date stuck prominently to Gloria’s fridge. I memorize all the floorboards that creak or groan, so I can tiptoe downstairs in the morning without waking anyone, take the Jeep into town for a sugary latte for me and black coffee for them, orange cinnamon morning buns for all of us. Or at least Wyn will have a bite, and I’ll polish off the rest. I walk for a while, enjoy the bittersweet scent of whitebark and pine and quaking aspen. There’s an entire shop here for sauces, syrups, and oils. Last week, after sampling easily two dozen, Wyn and I bought a smoky maple syrup aged in charred bourbon barrels. For Gloria’s birthday, we made pancakes, and when she tasted the syrup, she said, “Tastes like camping.” Then she got choked up, because camping was something she and Hank used to do. “When we were first dating and had no money,” she explained. Then, after a teary laugh, she added, “And once we’d been married for decades and still had no money.”
