A batch of the best highlights from what Carla's read, .
“Time isn’t any more important than size. All that is required of you is to be in the Now, in this moment which has been given us.”
A Wind in the Door
Madeleine L'Engle
Ree felt her joints unglue, become loose, and she was draining somehow, draining to the dirt, while black wings flying angles crossed her mind, and there were the mutters of beasts uncaged from women and she was sunk to a moaning place, kicked into silence.
Winter's Bone
Daniel Woodrell
All her life she had believed in something more, in the mystery that shape-shifted at the edge of her senses. It was the flutter of moth wings on glass and the promise of river nymphs in the dappled creek beds. It was the smell of oak trees on the summer evening she fell in love, and the way dawn threw itself across the cow pond and turned the water to light. Mabel could not remember the last time she caught such a flicker.
