111. Slaves of Spiegel by Daniel Pinkwater.
112. Interfictions 2: An Anthology of Interstitial Writing, edited by Delia Sherman and Christopher Barzak.
113. The Snarkout Boys and the Avocado of Death by Daniel Pinkwater. What I'm noticing about Pinkwater's books is how liberated they are from the usual expectations of plot and character. Pinkwater's characters are not taught moral or personal lessons, and there is essentially no formal patterning; the story has a shape, but it can't be circumscribed as it is being read--even the title misleads, although it's damn catchy. Overall, this works better than I would have expected, mostly because Pinkwater is really damned funny and weird.
