You are absolutely fabulous! I love when books can say so many things... I guess that's what makes books so brilliant as well. The words sweep you off your feet!
Oh the agony of the writer who leaves pieces of herself behind in the stories she creates: the tears, anger, frustration, insecurity, but also the awe, joy, and excitement. I'm reading Jennifer Egan's "A Visit from the Goon Squad" right now and the character hopping and time slippage between every chapter is making my brain smoke. It's heady stuff. Never seen anything like it.

So true. Love this!
Yes! I especially feel this way while reading the book I told you about. More so because it's YA literary.
Totally.

Happy Thursday!
Hi Christina, thanks for stopping by Nutschell's blog and saying hello! Happy reading!
So true, Christina. Though I do love just escaping in them too.
Love this! I always refer to something deep with the expression, "Down to skin and bones." This reminds me of that. (Hugs)Indigo
What a fabulous quote! Thank you!!!

So true. I always see books as more than an escape.
