Cookies are delicious...

Okay, so I'm an awkward person, I know. The only thing that cookies have to do with this post is that I'm eating a cookie right now. And, ohhhh, it's so delicious! Have you ever had a moment while eating something where you want to do the Homer Simpson moan, you know, the one he does while eating donuts (and sometimes drinking beer). Yeah, that's what I just wanted to do. Okay, but on to the real reason for this post.
Lull was by far my favorite. The reason I liked it was because it was a bunch of stories within stories. Very cool. I read another book that did that, called On a Winter's Night a Traveler, which was the same concept, with one story leading to another. I also thought the stories in and of themselves were interesting. My favorite was definitely the story about the cheerleader and the Devil. I really have no good reason for this being my favorite story. It just was. I really liked all the stories, actually. I really didn't have a problem with the fact that the stories didn't make any sense. I just went with it. So, yeah, all the stories were interesting. I'll admit to being a little perturbed by the zombie story, with the kidnapping and all, but other than that it was a good story.
So, now I'm off to make popcorn with lots of salt because it is delicious and do homework and watch Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, which is a really fun show that is also fantastical. So, yeah, see you all tomorrow. And Casey, don't forget donuts!!!

No joke, Amy- I *heart* your posts!

First of all, yes, cookies are delicious. You know what else is delicious? IF ON A WINTER'S NIGHT A TRAVELER. It is indeed a remarkable book. One of my all-time favorites. I was also pretty fond of "Lull," even though it didn't really grab me until this cheerleader started living her life backwards.

For those who don't know, If On a Winter's Night a Traveler is a novel by Italo Calvino. Amy's quite right to recommend it highly, and to be reminded of it when reading Link. There's a paper idea in this somewhere.
