Elephant's Eyebrows

The audiobook I'm listening to is The Diviners by Libba Bray. It's set in the 1920's, and I enjoy the different sayings. I've heard of the "cat's meow", the "bee's knees", but I've never heard of the "elephant's eyebrows". Haha. I love that. You're the elephant's eyebrows. Teehee. While listening, I came across a line that I really love. I don't know the exact punctuation, I'll have to get the book and see. But these are the exact words. And I adore them.

"In its way, writing was like healing. A cure for the loneliness he felt. Sometimes the cure took. Other times, it didn't. But he kept trying."

I'm not even half way through with it yet. It's quite long. But I really like it. It's very different than what I'm used to reading. Here's the summary from goodreads:

Evie O'Neill has been exiled from her boring old hometown and shipped off to the bustling streets of New York City--and she is pos-i-toot-ly thrilled. New York is the city of speakeasies, shopping, and movie palaces! Soon enough, Evie is running with glamorous Ziegfield girls and rakish pickpockets. The only catch is Evie has to live with her Uncle Will, curator of The Museum of American Folklore, Superstition, and the Occult--also known as "The Museum of the Creepy Crawlies."

When a rash of occult-based murders comes to light, Evie and her uncle are right in the thick of the investigation. And through it all, Evie has a secret: a mysterious power that could help catch the killer--if he doesn't catch her first.
