(no subject)

Currently re-reading Shira Glassman's Mangoverse, and I wanted to take a moment to quote this bit from Climbing the Date Palm:

The prince smiled slightly. "Save him..." Then he started to faint again.

Rivka grabbed him by both shoulders. "Wake up," she demanded. His eyes rolled open, but she wasn't sure if he was there. "Do you love him?"

"Yes. More... more than life."

Rivka tightened her grip on him and stared into his eyes. "You have to love life as much as you love him, do you year me? Because if you don't live to tell me where he is, or how I can rescue him, he'll die. So try harder."

Slowly, the prince nodded.

Ugh, love it.

Ohh, super cool! I enjoy writing reviews on GoodReads, so I sure wouldn't mind doing so. ^^

I've read up on Judaism (religious studies is a subject I love), but I'm no expert, so that is definitely handy!
