Ch 6. This book gets you engaged pretty quickly and I'm looking forward to the next chapter. Lorna is navigating the train to school, experiencing the world that is working against her as the child of a politician who made choices the majority don't like. She has found a girl in a similar experience as the Pinkie will not take their order on the train.

I have read:
Grey Matter
Children of the Corn
Lawnmower Man
Quitters, Inc.
The Last Rung of the Ladder
Graveyard Shift
The Boogeyman

Overall, I appreciate the style of writing in this book. It is engaging and makes me want to read the next story. The author does have a tendency to end the short stories similarly, with a bit of a mysterious cliff hanger that requires the reader to kind of figure it out on their own.

Great book so far. Took some time to get going, but Dune Club on YouTube has really helped.

Starting to talk about the worms

Picking this back up. It's a great little slice of life. Feels timeless. Great little vignettes.

book is picking up pace

Getting started again...

This is a challenging book for me. It has taken this long to feel some flow and interest. I'm going to give it another shot, but it might not be for me.

Really gets going at 140!

So far, so good. 3-4 stars at this point. It had a little lull right in the middle, talking about librarian history, but it's getting back on track.
