Girl vs. wall, girl vs. book

[stillsostrange]

In what was probably my last manatee-hoist before Readercon, I sent a 5.6, a 5.7 (the silly one that thwarted me last time) and two 5.8s. Still totally cheating, of course, so deduct accordingly.

And I figured out why the dead girl who kicks off Bone Palace got dead, and now I need to revise the beginning accordingly. It would appear that I know the first big chunk of plot--I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop.
