Dylan Connolly dylan_connolly — It was a dark and stormy night. * * * "Do you think things always have an explanation?" "Yes. I believe that they do. But I think that with our human limitations we're not always able to understand the explanations. But you see, Meg, just because we don't understand doesn't mean that the explanation doesn't exist." "I like to understand things," Meg said. * * * What could there be about a shadow that was so terrible that she knew that there had never been before or ever would be again, anything that would chill her with a fear that was beyond shuddering, beyond crying or screaming, beyond the possibility of comfort? * * * "Annd yyou kknoww tthatt yyou wwill nnott ssucceeedd?" "There's nothing left except to try." * * * From Madeleine L'Engle's Newberry Medal acceptance speech, "The Expanding Universe" (August 1963): A writer of fantasy, of fairy tale, or myth must inevitably discover that he is not writing out of his own knowledge or experience, but out of something both deeper and wider. I think that fantasy must possess the author and simply use him.

Kermit The thefrog — Type: Novel How I Heard About It: My friend Jordan wrote a paper on it for psychology class on the possibilities of animal language. She got a good grade so I figured it was worth a read. How I procured it: The Wooster Book Company Ratings (1-5) Story: 4.5 Writing: Don't remember Would I read it again? Yes, in fact it's in my queue right now. Who would I recommend it to? Science lovers, animal lovers, anyone who loves a good intriguing story. Did it remind me of anything? Not at the time, although I think of it often now because it so often sounds like my dog is trying to speak to us. Comments: This novel kept me extremely involved, since I finished it in one night. Even though I'm not a linguist or a scientist and don't really understand the issues of dog language, I appreciated the cause and found what these people were doing in the novel to be horrendous. I found myself being like, "Don't do that!" at parts and cried at other parts. This novel totally made me want a dog, just because of all the comfort his dog was giving him after such a tragedy. The flashbacks to their relationship were amazingly cute, I found the wife's job so interesting. I love language and linguistics, so his fascination with words also kept my interest. And of course the dogs... Written simply yet flowing, the style was easy to follow and the structure with the flashbacks was very appealling. I'd find myself going back and forth because she'd stop a scene in the middle and I'd be hanging dry.
