Real reactions I’ve had when reading a particularly pleasing development in the Flashman books:
1) Head jerked back, a short “Ha!”
2) Head shaken, delighted smile, a whispered “brilliant.”
3) Lips pushed into a circle like a baboon; from deep inside me blows a stunned “No!”
4) Book thrust onto bed; swept out of the room, arm pumping like a golfer who's made a thirty yard put.
