Quotes by Emma Straub  (?)

“Maybe that was the trick to life: to notice all the tiny moments in the day when everything else fell away and, for a split second, or maybe even a few seconds, you had no worries, only pleasure, only appreciation of what was right in front of you.”
Emma Straub, This Time Tomorrow

“Any story could be a comedy or a tragedy, depending on where you ended it. That was the magic. How the same story could be told an infinite number of ways.”
Emma Straub, This Time Tomorrow

“The way you spend your days is the way you spend your life.”
Emma Straub, This Time Tomorrow

“You don't waste October sunshine. Soon the old autumn sun would bed down in cloud blankets, and there would be weeks of gray rain before it finally decided to snow.”

Katherine Arden, Small Spaces


We are ready to enjoy October sunshine with some books! :)
