Literature 101- Thursday- 4th period

Jess hadn't been in this town long enough for certain things, which was why she was starting class off with marzipan in her hair.

"Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving, or at least a good day off... and it's raining things from the sky. Things not water," Jess said. "Or snow. Some kind of precipitation. That isn't happening. I mean, we all noticed that, right? Not just me? Anyway, okay, so two weeks ago I gave you the meta for A Tale of Two Cities, and you've all had plenty of time to read, so your book reports are due next week- last ones, I promise- and this week, why don't we talk about it a little."

And then a piece of marzipan fell out of her hair, and she tried to kick it under her desk with her shoe before anyone noticed.

"Well, I'd think that having a convenient double was terribly lazy writing," Rilla said, "except that I know of two men who were cousins who were almost interchangable. It led to a lot of unnecessary heartache in our community."

The story of Kenneth's mother's first husband would never not be completely insane.
