B+

So I get word of a nice "B+" review in ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY for the new book. In my "riotous collection," they say, I "often surprise a giggling reader by nailing the emptiness of [my] characters' self-absorption." Anyone who knows me knows how much I love to surprise a giggling reader! I generally pop up over the back of the bus seat and give them a good start. Anyway, it sounds like a very nice review, though I haven't seen the whole thing yet. I was hoping for an "A" but I missed a couple of classes without a doctor's excuse and the syllabus was very clear on that point.
