Hello! Happy Top Ten Tuesday! What is TTT? TTT is a weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish. Check out their blog for more info and to see upcoming themes.
This week’s theme was beach reads, but I actually did beach reads for Top 5 Wednesday a few weeks ago. You can read that post here → Top 5 Wednesday: Summer Reads
INSTEAD I am going to do another past theme this week. I decided to do a little spin off of the favorite book quotes and narrow it down to favorite book quotes of recent reads…
“…when a beating hear stopped, there was no black or white, only blood-red. The flesh was equal. It was the character of a man that made him better or worse.”
–The Mapmaker’s Children

“This is a place of mystery, Daniel, a sanctuary. Every book, every volume you see here has a soul. The soul of the person who wrote it and of those who read it and of those who read it and lived and dreamed with it. Every time a book changes hands, every time someone runs his eyes down its pages, its spirit grows and strengthens.”
– The Shadow of the Wind

“I’m not afraid of dying. But I am afraid of dying here.” She swept her hand over the room, the tavern, the city. “I’d rather die on an adventure than live standing still.”
- – A Darker Shade of Magic

I wanted someone to love me because of my mind and accomplishments, not despite them.”
–Sawbones

“Quinn had a stage-five meltdown on the front stoop because I again refused to patronize the Mister Softee ice cream truck that followed us home from the park like a f*ing stalker. (I’m sorry, but that Mister Softee driver has caused more family strife than a Vegas bachelor party)”
–Keep Me Posted

“A good novelist does not lead his characters, he follows them. A good novelist does not create events, he watches them happen and then writes down what he sees.”
–Finders Keepers
You can read my review here → Book Review: Finders Keepers by Stephen King
“For nonreaders, life is simply what they touch and see, not what they feel when they open the pages of a play and are transported to the Forest of Arden or Illyria. Where the world is full of a thousand colors for those who love books, I suspect it is simply black and gray to everyone else. A tree is a tree to them; it is never a magical doorway to another world populated with beings that don’t exist here.”
– Rebel Queen

“The curse is not that we cannot choose our Fate. The curse, the curse we all live under, is that we can.”
– The Queen of the Night
You can read my review here → Book Review: The Queen of the Night by Alexander Chee
“Every religion lies. Every moral precept is a delusion. Even the stars are a mirage. The truth is darkness, and the only thing that matters is making a statement before one enters it. Cutting the skin of the world and leaving a scar. That’s all history is, after all: scar tissue.”
–Mr. Mercedes

“Half an hour later he’s all fluffy and clean and smiling and eating sandwiches. Baths are like Valium for four-year-olds.”
– Finding Audrey
