Bookworming: How They Met and Other Stories by David Levithan

Last Saturday, I found David Levithan's How They Met and Other Stories while randomly browsing at National Book Store. I have two David Levithan books already, both written with Rachel Cohn -- Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist and Naomi and Ely's No Kiss List. I was going through his collaborations with Rachel Cohn first, and since I haven't found a nice copy of their third book, Dash and Lily's Book of Dares, I thought I would move on to his solo work instead. This book drew me to it, as if the magnets on the cover actually worked, so I got it. I was actually there for another book, but because I need to ration out my book-buying (otherwise I'd end up devouring everything in an instant), I got this one instead, vowing to return for the other book on my next trip to a bookstore.  


Last Monday, it was stormy and I was sick with a fever, bound to my bed, so it was the perfect time to start the book. I spent the entire day snuggled under a blanket, alternating between reading and sleeping. I finished it late in the evening.
