I'm never disappointed. Though, there was a moment I wasn't sure cookies were going to make an appearance. This is why one should always read to the end. Also, did you know I was once a reference librarian? I may have worn spandex once as well. <br /><br />Are you ever able to read without dissecting the writing, the themes, approach? Maybe I'm always doing that these days and just think I'm reading for pure pleasure.
