• Veo que me he convertido en un muy mal corresponsal. No es que no piense en ti. Vienes a mis pensamientos a menudo. Pero cuando lo haces me parece que te debo una carta particularmente grande. Y así terminas en el "almacén de las buenas intenciones": "No puedo hacerlo ahora." "Entonces ponlo en espera". Esta es la estrategia de uno para hacer frente a la vejez, y a la muerte... porque uno no puede morir con tantas obligaciones almacenadas. Nuestra inteligente especie, tan fértil e ingeniosa para negar sus debilidades.

  Saul Bellow

• Wickedly Dangerous translates a terrifying figure from folklore , the Baba Yaga, into the smart, resourceful, motorcycle-riding Barbara Yager, who travels with her dragon-disguised-as-a-dog best friend, righting wrongs and helping those in need. But when she stumbles into a town whose children are vanishing, and meets the haunted young sheriff trying to save them, what was a job becomes very personal. This is urban fantasy at its best, with all the magic and mayhem tied together with very human emotions, even when the characters aren't quite human.

• Una mujer curtida es picante. Ha sido adobada con las experiencias de la vida. Como un vino complejo, puede ser alternativamente dulce, ácida, chispeante, suave. Es a la vez maternal y juguetona. Segura, seductora e ingeniosa. Es menos probable que tenga una agenda que una mujer joven: no hay un reloj biológico que marque las horas junto a la cama de su amante, ni una campaña para llevarle al altar, ni fantasías de rescate. La mujer experimentada sabe quién es. Podría ser cualquiera de nosotras, siempre que se comprometa a vivir plena y apasionadamente la segunda mitad de su vida, a pesar de los fracasos y los comienzos en falso.
