quotable

From Tamora Pierce's* fascinating biography that tells of her journey from hillbilly to successful YA writer:

"Books are still the main yardstick by which I measure true wealth."

*Tamora is one of CatGirl's all-time favorite authors.

Has she read the Alana series? I LOVED those when I was about 12 or 13.
