“Happiness had never been like this before. Now it came like sun showers, the sun and the rain together. Happiness was happier than it had been—sharp, piercing, and snatched, like a breath while swimming in surf (Knox 269).”
Knox, Elizabeth. Dreamhunter: Book One of the Dreamhunter Duet. New York: Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2005.
What a beautiful quotation. I love the imagery of the surf and the quick breath of happiness. I can’t wait to read what you have to say about Dreamhunter after you have read the whole book.
