This is extremely odd; I like it very, very much. It's something I wouldn't have thought of in my wildest dreams, and I feel a little self-consious to realize that fact. I think my favorite is CJ's with the starfish. Now, that is something I never could have come up with, but it was done so well. And, as I always love to cite a line that I really enjoyed, here we go:"The nights here are hot and sticky on her skin, and she thinks she can taste the ocean in the almost liquid air." I really like that. Also I love all of the sentences in the second half of Mandy/Helen. All the great, simple discription- "She bit her bottom lip until it bled dulce de leche, the butterscotch gliding into the back of her throat. She found sweetness in the bitter taste a cry held back, and the tang of release on her tongue at the realization that no one would hear it anyway." This is very, very unconventional. I like it a lot, dispite the odd pictures it provokes. Very, very clever.
