Short Stories: The Fat Girl
I enjoyed this story because it was about power over one's own self, instead of others telling what one should or should not do. I also liked how the different personalities relied on the outcome of the story as well. Maybe, someone should write a sequal about her going on The Biggest Loser!-- Just sayin'. That would totally change and revise the whole thematic elements of the "Screw this attitude" that is given at the end of the story.
The Magic Barrel
When I first read this title, I was thinking it referred to Cracker Barrel because... It is magic-- Steak and Gravy and dumplings! However, I was terribly wrong. The characters within this story were seemingly different from one another-- some having lots of background info and others having not as much. At the end of the story, I enjoyed has this "eerie" feeling rose over me... Like the good kind-- not bad. Anyways, the descriptions and character plots really aided to the main point of the story.
