Quotes from Neither Here Nor There

Some of you may have seen the quotes I posted recently on Facebook and Twitter, all from my novel, Neither Here Nor There. In case you didn’t, or you want to see them again, here are all seventeen:

• …she wasn’t there yet. Now, she was in limbo, neither here nor there.
  .
  
• …staring at an image that was no longer there – as if the film had stuck just before she’d turned and left his line of vision.
  .
• “Oh you British.” Claude had wrung his hands in mock despair. “You are so… so… réservé.”
  .
• …what a street name… Snake Street. Did the name signify something? Was she being lured into a trap to receive a fatal bite?
  .
• …she was alone in a strange land at the end of a single, short bus ride.
  .
• Who was she indeed? A creature in metamorphosis, something between a caterpillar and a butterfly.
  .
• What if she’d made a terrible mistake – one she’d regret all her life?
  .
• “Do all the mothers on Mars have lots of babies?”
  .
• …familiar but different, as if she were looking at a wall for the first time from the other side.
  .
• Esty must have sensed his growing unease. “Wait. Please. There’s more.”
  .
• “Maybe you could compromise your principles a little by agreeing to their terms.”
  .
• “…as far as they’re concerned, I’m dead. Do you know what that feels like?”
  .
• Now, finally, her punishment had come. She deserved whatever they were going to do to her.
  .
• “You are where you need to be now. That’s all you need to remember.”
  .
• “Sooner or later things will settle down and so will you – here where you belong.”
  .
• “I’m beginning to think you were right all along. Extremism of any sort is dangerous.”
  .
• Esty nodded. “Life is such a gamble. One wrong move and you can ruin it forever.”
  Noa looked straight into Esty’s eyes. “Look at it the other way. One right move and you will always be thankful.”
