Laura Lippman Quotes

But The Central Branch Of The Enoch Pratt Free Library Was Still A Place Of Wonders To Tess, Even If The Book Budget Had Been Slashed And The Hours Cut. Her Parents Had Made A Lot Of Mistakes, A Fact Tess Compulsively Shared On First Dates, But She Gave Them Credit For Doing One Thing Right: Starting When She Was Eight, They Gave Her A Library Card And Dropped Her Off At The Downtown Pratt Every Saturday While They Shopped. Twenty-one Years Later, Tess Still Entered Through The Children's Entrance On The Side, Pausing To Toss A Penny In The Algae-coated Fish Pond, Then Climbing The Stairs To The Main Hall. If She Could Be Married Here, She Would.
