Switchbacks!!!

Page 148! 3rd full paragraph! "Zigzagging footpaths" - There are switchbacks in fantasy England! Oh, how I miss Summer Field Studies. It was absolutely the best experience of my life. I even miss the switchbacks. Even when Cubby announced we were on the last one, even though it may have been the first. And I miss sleeping under the blanket of stars! Even if it meant being covered in frost on our final morning. And Dirtbag, the sweet feeling of scoring a ten. I'm looking forward to next year! Now, to relate it to the book... Well, I feel like Kathy's and Ruth's relationship is littered with switchbacks. Now they're friends, now they're not. I feel like their destination in life is like a frozen Thunder Lake. So, they best enjoy the journey. Good news - they don't have to drive through Kansas to get to Norfolk!
