Books present a much wider range of vocabulary, concepts, and inferences than can be found in our daily banter with friends and family members. ~ Michael E. Martinez

She blinks furiously, trying to dredge up some more moisture from her now dry-baked tear ducts. Two of the shapes resolve. One is Selkirk, on her side on the floor of the lab, her legs jackknifing in furious staccato. The other is a hungry which is kneeling astride her, stuffing her spilled intestines into its mouth in pink, sagging coils. More hungries surge in from all sides, hiding Selkirk from view.

I'm special. I'm more. They all came to New York. ~ Melanie Benjamin

She hurried toward the balcony. She would be joyful for Lord Thornbeck and Magdalen. So why did she have to blink away tears as she walked? When ~ Melanie Dickerson
