Hello again!
This week’s topic is a hard one for my because I have a notebook FULL of book quotes that I’ve loved and have resonated with me over my years of reading. I love it especially because on different pages I will have quotes from the same book that I’ve re-read and noticed something different in the second time around (or third…)
Anyway, let’s get stuck in hey?
***
1. ‘We had to believe in kindness, and courtesy, and telling the truth’ – Tea Time for the Traditionally Built, Alexander McCall Smith
I’ll level with you here, I have so. many. quotes. in my quote book from this series. Mma Ramotswe is everything I want to be – honest, respectful, self-assured, a rad detective…I mean what’s not to love? I also adore her little insights like these that are scattered throughout the series ♥
2. ‘You only need one ray of light to chase all the shadows away’ – A Man Called Ove, Fredrik Backman
Have I written a list yet without this book on it? Regardless, this may have stuck with me because I read it recently or just because it’s a really lovely thought.
3 ‘It’s the simple things in life that are the most extraordinary’ – The Alchemist, Paolo Coelho
I would be remiss not to include a quote from my #1 book. This is possibly the only book I have ever underlined my favourite quotes in, rather than just writing them down. This quote stands out particularly as a reminder to recognise the wonder in our every day.

These are some lovely quotes! I haven’t read any of these books, but I may just have to look into it! I posted my Top 3 Quotes, but another of my favourite quotes has to be ““You haven’t got a letter on yours,” George observed. “I suppose she thinks you don’t forget your name. But we’re not stupid-we know we’re called Gred and Forge.”” From my all-time fave twins ❤
