"Some Zombie Contingency Plans" by Kelly Link
- My sister: Is Magic for Beginners a short story collection?
- Me: Yup.
- My sister: Do you like it?
- Me: Yeah...but it's really more [our younger sister's] thing. Maybe I'm getting too old, but I don't find logical inconsistencies charming anymore. When the storytelling jumps around, it's no longer awesomely twee, but just...annoying.
- My sister: Yeah, that's how I felt about those Lemony Snicket books.
- Me: Exactly.
