Rachel’s Random Reads

Alba in Book Land
In memory of my beautiful friend Heidi Moore.
To die, to sleep –
No more; and by a sleep to say we end
The heartache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to – ’tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wished.
Hamlet, Act III, Scene I,
William Shakespeare
