“You can only do things one day at a time, sport. Sometimes life is so bloody that’s the only way you can get through it. But the good bit about living one day at a time is that when nice things happen, you enjoy them more than people who are always thinking about the past or the future.”

Deborah Crombie, Kissed a Sad Goodbye
Olivia Gallagher
“Crombie is so good at building characters and relationships that you care about but what I really appreciate that she keeps all the twists and turns in her books believable.”
