Quotes by Chia-Chia Lin (?)

“But the allergies. The language. The sidelong glances. It was a kind of violence, what my father had done. He had brought us to a place we didn’t belong, and taken us from a place we did. Now we yearned for all places and found peace in none.”
― Chia-Chia Lin, The Unpassing

“Here is a whale, I told myself, and then I wondered if it would die. It looked too big to die, too big to vanish during a sudden, silent creak of the world.”
― Chia-Chia Lin, The Unpassing

“The stars. What was so great about puffs of dust and gas? Even Natty, with his planetary masterpieces, was only interested in the colors and patterns. Not our world and its edges. Not the delusions that celestial objects had meaning to us, or that they—or we—were anything more than garbage floating around in a rubble-strewn world.”
― Chia-Chia Lin, The Unpassing

What will be our March 2020 Open Pick?

Remember, if you vote for a book and it wins, you are implicitly promising to read the book and participate in the discussion. If you fail to join in, your library will receive a visit from the "book murderer", who will cut all of your books in half and remove whichever half seems more interesting.

The poll will end at 11:59 pm on January 31st
