“My adrenaline started pumping anytime I was within a hundred yards of a bookshop. I loved books nearly as much as I loved clothes. And that's saying something. The feel of them and the smell of them. A bookshop was like like an Aladdin's Cave for me. Entire worlds and lives can be found just behind that glossy cover. All you had to do was look.”
Hilma Wolitzer, Summer Reading

“Only reading, she knew, could distract her from her obsessive thoughts and restore her sense of peace.”
