The Tin Drum by Günter Grass

"Finally, from so little sleeping and so much reading, his brain dried up and he went completely out of his mind." - Don Quixote

Throne of Glass in the Bookshop

Closed Casket by Sophie Hannah

"When an author took the time and trouble to choose exactly the right words and arrange them in the right order, there was a possibility of genuine communication taking place, the thoughtful writer reaching the thoughtful reader. The opposite of what happened when two people opened their mouths and simply let their half-formed, incoherent thoughts spill out." - Sophie Hannah

 "A good bookshop is just a genteel Black Hole that knows how to read." - Terry Pratchett
