Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I hate writing self evaluations.

See if Matt's mom still has the X-rated pages from Ghost Story that you could submit instead....

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I want my kids to read. Period.

For that, I would suggest Are You There, God? It's Me, Margaret.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I can remember my mother complaining to my dad that he shouldn't leave books like Michener's Caravans lying around where I could pick them up and read them, but she never told me not to read that or anything else.

Our wings are not tired.

All in all, I think I'd rather my kid had the freedom to read whatever s/he wanted whether I knew about it or not.

Jess, I think I am in agreement with you.

OMG, I loved Ghost Story.

my dad always wanted me to stop reading in the van on road trips and look out the window.

My mother and your father are related!--as much as an Indian man and a woman of German-English descent can be related. She'd take books away from me on vacation.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Our vacations frequently were an eight-hour drive away. My parents loved it when we'd read in the car. Before we got in the car, they'd always check to make sure we had enough books.

Always Anti-fascist!

Freshman year in high school is when my books started to have the high body count I'm known for today. I remember "Forever" and "Go ask Alice" well, though.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

When I was a kid I could read in the car for hours, but at some point during puberty my inner ears went wonky and supersensitive and now I get motion sick even reading on the subway. Unfair, I tell you!

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

One of my favorite memories is of reading the Harry Potter books out loud to my kids as we drove to and from softball tournaments. I read the first 5 out to them before CJ was old enough to read 6 and 7 on his own.
