Bluebelle Wednesday Carroll currently recommends almost anything written by Dianna Wynne Jones, Maurice Sendak, Lemony Snicket, or Zilpha Keatley Snyder. She grew up on a boat until it sunk, fell in love with reading when she discovered that an upsetting enough book could win you a day off from school, and now studies English and Creative Writing at Yale University.
