I'm in a mood to hide with a good book today and not have to deal with the cold weather or the gray office walls.... If I could pull a book from my shelves today it would have to be something by Carey. I'm hungry for her lyrical writing style and vivid descriptions of beauty and grace.
“I would that I could have stopped time and preserved that day forever. It was a perfect day. There was the shadow of sorrow, yes. It would always be there. But that was the nature of life. The bright mirror and the dark, reflecting one another. And today there was so much brightness.”
― Jacqueline Carey, Kushiel's Mercy
