I liked reading the article...and I'm disappointed by it.

This story goes way beyond look at my sims! At some point it became my favorite story. I have read the whole thing, aching that there are no more chapters to look forward to.

To give you an idea, I love Alice in Wonderland, the Harry Potter books, Jean Auel's Earth Children series, the Hunger Games books, The Host by Stephanie Meyer, Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens, among many others. I think I've read more words than I've spoken, and I am pretty chatty. In childhood I learned to read while walking, stopping and starting when others do, even crossing streets reading. In my teen years I kept a book in my purse. In my 20s I limited myself to reading during work breaks and when the kids are in bed because I have a tendency to get sucked into a book and didn't want my children to suffer for it. I have read a lot of stories. I love The Kingdom of Lothere best.

If this was merely a story about sims, it would not have beaten out all the great authors I've read.

Then again, the person who wrote the article only read a story arc, and not one of my favorites. To me the story arcs seem more for rereading. You miss way too much that way.
