Hello everyone!

Book Quote Wednesday
word of the week is #battle
from #DeadlyCourtship

Jasper's grief hit him like a wave. He could feel Ingrid watching him and tasted the acid tang of her disapproval. He kept his attention fixed on Bernard's body, and sang even louder.
As he and Ophelia had learned long ago, trying to please their family was a hopeless battle. Only Bernard had ever welcomed him on his own terms, and now Bernard was gone.

"...it was better not to judge the man who had gone down under an impossible burden. It was better to remember: Thou knowest this man's fall: but thou knowest not his wrassling."

~James Baldwin, Notes of a Native Son #bookquotes

"Life and death so close together, and love and hatred, and right and wrong, said something to me which I did not want to hear concerning man, concerning the life of man."

~James Baldwin, Notes of a Native Son #bookquotes

"Anyone who has ever struggled with poverty knows how extremely expensive it is to be poor; and if one is a member of a captive population, economically speaking, one's feet have simply been placed on the treadmill forever."- James Baldwin; Fifth Avenue, Uptown #bookquotes

"It is not an easy thing to be forced to re-examine a way of life and to speculate, in a personal way, on the general injustice."- James Baldwin, A Fly in the Buttermilk #bookquotes

"Bulawayo is not a city for idleness. The idea is to live within the cracks. Unnoticed and unnoticeable, offering every service but with the capacity to vanish when the task required is accomplished."

~Yvonne Vera, Butterfly Burning #bookquotes

"What entitles you to fling my truths in my face? You are taking a liberty I deny. Granted, all you allege is correct, but I have not authorized you to be frank with me." 🤣🤣🤣

E. M. Cioran, Anathemas and Admirations #bookquotes

"I have just read a biography. The notion that all the figures it describes no longer exist except in this book strikes me as so intolerable that I have had to lie down to avoid a collapse."

~E. M. Cioran, Anathemas and Admiration #bookquotes

Book Quote Wednesday

From #SecretCourtship

“Is the large man your lover?”
“What makes you ask?”
Nadine shrugged. “He looked at you like you’re a cool drink on a hot day.”
Her face heating, Ophelia tried to laugh away the girl’s words. “I saved his friend’s life. He’s grateful, nothing more.”

Word of the week is "drink"

"There's blood on me!" Nora screams frantically. "Was I bit? Oh my God, am I going to turn straight?" ~~Straight by Chuck Tingle

Angela Carter, Black Venus #bookquotes

"By the way, if anyone should ask, Benjamin Franklin's an asshole." ~~Doorways to the Deadeye, Eric J. Guignard
