cinderella whips out her reading list.

Does anyone have a copy of Ribbon I can borrow? I'm a quick reader, I'd have it back by the end of the week. Research and all that, you know.

Speaking of! Rick, please don't tell me you're still holed up in your study. I should probably be shouldering some of the work here, love, all things considered.

Uhm, here's the Spark Notes. Thinly veiled commentary about us, blah blah blah, society is full of fail, blah blah blah.

I never much cared for Spark Notes. So it's Animal Farm for the Atheneum?

Dude that book is deep. Like an ocean.

[hip_hopper]

Oh man totally. It has depths with lots of those angler fish things swimming around in it.

[strucktwelve]

Quentin will be flattered to hear that, I'm sure.

What's Ribbon?

[hollowhorseman]

Dude, it's only like, the most controversial book in Taledom. It's by Quentin [inserthislastnamehere], who I THINK is the Wizard of Oz, but that's conjecture based on the hot air balloon thing and his writing. Maybe someone else can confirm or deny that.

Anyway, it's basically a veiled commentary on the Tale community, that we ought to be doing more for humanity, since we're immortal and all that. But it's also a cool story in its own right. I read it in school last year and I didn't pick up on the Tale connection at first. But that may be my own failing.
