“‘Perhaps I haven't seen what you can do,’ she said. ‘But I've seen what you choose to do.’ She looked up. ‘Isn't that more important?’”

Thorin: I'm ruining your reputation, aren't I?
Bilbo: Don't worry, I've been hard at work trying to ruin my reputation for years. Perhaps after this, influential families will stop trying to catapult their unwed daughters over my garden fence.

"It was no use listening to demons, Elisabeth told herself. They were liars. Deceivers. Untrustworthy to the core. Except when they weren't."

The barest hint of warmth softened the Director’s severe face. “Do you know why I chose to keep you, Elisabeth?”
Elisabeth froze, the breath trapped in her chest. The Director had never addressed her by her given name—only her last name, Scrivener, or sometimes just “apprentice,” depending on how much trouble she was in, which was often a fantastic amount. “No, Director,” she said.
“Hmm. It was storming, I recall. The grimoires were restless that night. They were making so much noise that I barely heard the knock on the front doors.” Elisabeth could easily picture the scene. Rain lashing against the windows, the tomes howling and sobbing and rattling beneath their restraints. “When I found you on the steps, and picked you up and brought you inside, I was certain you would cry. Instead, you looked around and began to laugh. You were not afraid. At that moment I knew I couldn’t send you away to an orphanage. You belonged in the library, as much as any book.”
Elisabeth had been told the story before, but only by her tutor, never the Director herself. Two words echoed through her mind with the vitality of a heartbeat: you belonged. They were words that she had waited sixteen years to hear, and desperately hoped were true.
— Sorcery Of Thorns, Margaret Rogerson

She wasn't a wielder of chains; she was a breaker of them. She was the library's will made flesh.

“You like this place?"
"Of course I do. It has books in it.”
Is anyone else extremely excited for Mysteries of Thorn Manor??
I can’t wait to get back to the world of Elisabeth, Nathaniel, and Silas. I loved Sorcery of Thorns and definitely related to Elisabeth’s love of books. I would just love to explore the Great Libraries and see all the Grimoires and magic. And maybe even get a sword.
💬What fantasy world would you love to visit??
Besides Austermeer, definitely Ketterdam (even if I did get my wallet stolen right off the bat) and Terrasen.
