Calvino

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this exerpt. It was very easy and fun to read. The author really made me feel like I was a part of the book. Like he was specifically reaching out and speaking to me. I liked this connection that the author tried to make with the reader. In the beginning when he was talking about getting ready to read and all of the different places to read and postitions to sit in I couldn't help but to picture myself doing those exact same things and imagining that he was talking about me. I really appreciated the amount of reader involvement in this excerpt.
