Quotable Thursday


 "Sometimes, guilt and loss push a person into becoming more than singular. They split in two to resurrect what they’ve lost or live in service to what was lost. A lover will take up the mission of the dead partner. A mother might take up a dead daughter’s hobby to feel close to her. A sister might flirt with the notion of becoming a monster, to fill in the parts of her brother she doesn’t know." - No Gods, No Monsters by Cadwell Turnbull

I'm reading No Gods, No Monsters by Cadwell Turnbull this week. It's a wierd little paranormal mystery. A case of police brutality against a monster spurs an uprising of protests, hate crimes, and suicides...The monsters don't want to hide anymore. Parts of this story flow like river water in a hurricane, other parts like a tipped Dixie cup in a desert drought. We'll see how it goes.

What are you reading this week?
