I'm not a fan of magical realism, so i had to read this book slowly.

I'm participating in Orange July though I haven't started reading anything yet. I'm hoping to change that soon.

I completely agree that anything above 80 degrees means staying inside and keeping cool. Then again, anything below 40 degrees also means staying inside for me. I'm pretty fickle in my desire to go outside.
