I  loved Ann Patchett’s first essay collection on audio, so I knew I’d love this one, too, and I did. I had a feeling that I’d end up buying a copy for myself, but then her essay entitled “There Are No Children Here” sealed the deal.

From "There Are No Children Here": "People want you to want what they want. If you want the same things they want, then their want is validated. If you don't want what the same things, your lack of wanting can, to some people, come across as judgment."
