Welcome back to Thursday Quotables! This weekly feature is the place to highlight a great quote, line, or passage discovered during your reading each week. Whether it’s something funny, startling, gut-wrenching, or just really beautifully written, Thursday Quotables is where my favorite lines of the week will be, and you’re invited to join in!
NEW! Thursday Quotables is now using a Linky tool! Be sure to add your link if you have a Thursday Quotables post to share.
A Fine and Bitter Snow by Dana Stabenow
(published 2002)
Yes, more Kate Shugak! I can’t get enough of this series. I read books 11 and 12 this past week, and thought I’d share a passage from #12 that appealed to the introvert in me:
The great thing about the moose and the grizzly and the wolf was that they had not been gifted by their creator with the power of speech. They couldn’t make conversation. The moose might kick your ass and the grizzly might rip it off and the wolf might eat it, but they wouldn’t talk you to death while they got on with the job.
What lines made you laugh, cry, or gasp this week? Do tell!

Haha, I love that! I’ve never heard of that author before, I might have to go check her out 🙂
I’m so in love with this series — which is kind of funny for me, because I don’t usually go for mysteries. The characters are so great, and I love the writing.
Love that quote! I’ve not heard of this series, so I may have to in the next couple of weeks.
It’s really terrific! I’m totally hooked.
LOL! Tahts’ true 😉
Grr, I love how anti-social this quote is.
