Time Quote by Lois Lowry

“A lot of people I know would hate that ending, but not me. I loved it. Mainly because I got to make the book happy. I decided they made it. They made it to the past. I decided the past was our world, and the future was their world. It was parallel worlds.” quote by Lois Lowry — Download Open image
