Patrick Ness Quotes
He Loved Physical Books With The Same Avidity Other People Loved Horses Or Wine Or Prog Rock. He'd Never Really Warmed To Ebooks Because They Seemed To Reduce A Book To A Computer File, And Computer Files Were Disposable Things, Things You Never Really Owned. He Had No Emails From Ten Years Ago But Still Owned Every Book He Bought That Year. Besides, What Was More Perfect An Object Than A Book? The Different Rags Of Paper, Smooth Or Rough Under Your Fingers. The Edge Of The Page Pressed Into Your Thumbprint As You Turned A New Chapter. The Way Your Bookmark - Fancy, Modest, Scrap Paper, Candy Wrapper - Moved Through The Width Of It, Marking Your Progress, A Little Further Each Time You Folded It Shut.
