Make no mistake, adolescence is a war. No one gets out unscathed. – Harlan Coben
When I was seventeen, I worked as a counsellor at a co-ed sleep-away camp for eight weeks. I loved it but it could be harrowing – it was far too much responsibility for someone my age. – Harlan Coben
If Im not writing well, Im not happy. If Im not spending enough time with my family, Im not happy. If Im not connecting to friends or if I dont work out enough… You get the point. Everything has to be balanced. Nothing should be an extreme. – Harlan Coben
I am very lucky that I get to tell stories for a living. I love being able to grab peoples attention, to keep them turning the pages, to make them stay awake all night. I want to stir the pulse, yes, but also to stir the heart. I hope The Woods does that. – Harlan Coben
