Quotes by Claire Cook  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“If plan A doesn't work, the alphabet has 25 more letters - 204 if you're in Japan.”
Claire Cook, Seven Year Switch

“What are sisters for if not to point out the things the rest of the world is too polite to mention.”
Claire Cook, Must Love Dogs: New Leash on Life

“What do I want? What kind of question is that? I want what everybody wants. I want someone who has my back. I want someone's name to put in the space after "in an emergecy please call." I want someone who will drink the other half of the bottle of wine so I don't. And someone to make it worth sitting down at an actual table to eat. I want someone who's dying to get home after a long day because I'm going to be there.”
Claire Cook, Best Staged Plans

Sincerely, Shirley

Claire Kathy,

Thanks for your kind words about Summer Blowout and Life's a Beach!

Congrats on your first novel! I just loved House and Home. Such a great story, and so beautifully written. I wish you much success with it.

So nice to meet another Voice author. I think it's such a fabulous list.

Claire
