Thanks for the book!

update April 8th, 2005 -- I have rolled the dice to see what's next, and ta-da, this is it after Stolen Moments by Janice Kaiser, c. 1987

I collect quotes as I read. These ones are fun, poetical, or even philosophical. Take what you like, and leave the rest. Note that these aren't necessarily the "best" in the book. These happen to be close to the spot where I stopped reading each night.

He turned onto the boardwal and felt the full impact of the stinging blast from the ocean. Observing the shifting clouds, he decided it wouldn't be surprising if they had a snow flurry later on, even though tomorrow was the first day of spring. It had been a long winter, and everyone said how much they were looking forward to the warm weather ahead. He wasn't.
He enjoyed Spring Lake best once late autumn set in. By then the summer people had closed their houses, not appearing even for weekends.
He was chagrined, though, that with each passing year more and more people were selling their winter homes and settling here permanently. They had decided it was worth the seventy-mile commute into New York so that they could begin and end the day in this quietly beautiful New Jersey seaside community.
Spring Lake, with its Victorian houses that appeared unchanged form the way that had been in the 1890s, was worth the inconveniende of the trip, they explained.
Spring Lake, with the fresh, bracing secnt of the ocean always present, revived the soul, they agreed.
Spring Lake, with its two-mile boardwalk, where one could revel in the silvery magnificence of the Atlantic, was a treasure, they pointed out. p3
[comment: I love books set on the coast - it gives me the warm fuzzies.]

The book under her arm, she climbed the stairs to the second floor. It was only nine o'clock, but all she wanted to do was shower, change into warm pj's and go to bed where she could read or watch television or both. p40
[comment: ah, the pleasures of life!]

"I didn't think they'd buy that story at the time. I thought that old lady was as reliable as a weather report." p158
[comment: cliche but fun]

I read to escape the blahs of life and this fitted the bill perfectly. Hope to release, soon.
