The Dolphins of Pern by Anne McCaffrey
5.0
I THOROUGHLY enjoyed this book! I'm a huge Pern fan...reading the original series again for 3rd or 4th time...I thought I had read this one, but it didn't seem familiar at all...
I found the interactions between humans and dolphins and especially the charming childlike-ness of the dolphins just what I needed to read right now. Deep in depression lately, this book gave me a welcome respite, and brought me happy tears and many smiles. I get what others say about it not adding to the overall plot of Pern...but I still thoroughly enjoyed the dolphin/human interactions and found it all so charming and a downright balm to all my recent emotional turmoil. I need to read more books like this that make me feel this good. And how I WISH we could actually help dolphins to talk in real life! :)
